| Author | Toloraya, Georgy |
| Summary / Abstract (Note) | A veteran diplomat told me in a private conversation recently, when we were discussing Russia's foreign policy priorities, that the BRICS (an association of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) was nothing more than a "photo opportunity" for its leaders and politicians, a kind of window dressing aimed at demonstrating "the failure of attempts to isolate Russia internationally." |
