BRICS Meeting in Cape Town: “The Spotlight” on Press TV (Iran)
Last night’s nearly half hour broadcast of The Spotlight focused on the meeting of Foreign Ministers of the BRICS member states and of “Friends of BRICS,” including Iran, in Cape Town, South Africa. I was pleased to share the podium with labor union activist, radio producer and political commentator Frank Emspak who is based in Madison, Wisconsin. I comment in passing that if all labor activists in the USA, and not only, were as well informed as Mr. Emspak about the way U.S. domestic politics impact on global politics and vice versa we would be living in a much less dangerous world.
Press TV presenter Bardia Honardar was well prepared with questions probing the significance of BRICS for a shift to multipolarity in the world order, as well as the significance of de-dollarization and the role of BRICS in that ongoing development reshaping world finance. I was especially happy to land the question of what Iran’s prospective membership in BRICS means for Iran, on the one hand, and for BRICS itself, on the other hand.
