FROM October 22-24, 36 countries, mainly from the global South, attended the 16th summit of the Brics countries. UN secretary-general Antonio Guterres also joined this meeting. As Chinese President Xi Jinping stated, the summit aimed “to create new opportunities for the global South.”

The North held various economic and diplomatic levers to keep nations in check, and when those were insufficient, the US relied on military force.
