In 2024, Iran's accession to BRICS was hailed as the birth of a new world order. By 2026, however, when US and Israeli missiles struck Tehran, the BRICS response was... absolute zero. 💡 We analyze why the bloc failed its first major credibility test and how internal rivalries (UAE, Saudi Arabia, India) neutralized any notion of an alliance.
🔍 What you will see in this analysis:
The Gulf Rift: How the UAE and Saudi Arabia view Iran as a threat rather than an ally within BRICS.
Moscow’s Balancing Act: Why Russia avoided providing practical support to Tehran, fearing for its relations with the Gulf monarchies.
The "Hiding" President: India's stance and its strategic relationship with Israel and the US.
Lula and South Africa: The retreat of multipolar rhetoric in the face of fear toward Washington.
A Message to New Candidates: Why BRICS membership provides no guarantee of security or political cover.
The war in Iran proved that BRICS remains a forum for economic cooperation without a shared strategic culture. The "Global South" is a geographical concept, not a geopolitical entity.
