Since the establishment of BRICS 16 years ago, the foundation of cooperation has become increasingly solid and the fields have gradually expanded. It has formed an all-round and multi-level structure of pragmatic cooperation in dozens of fields, such as economy and trade, finance, science and technology, industry, agriculture, culture, education, health, think tanks and friendship cities, led by leaders' meetings and supported by foreign ministers' meetings and high-level representatives' meetings on security affairs.
In recent years, the influence and attractiveness of the BRICS mechanism have continued to increase. The five countries adhere to fairness and justice, actively promote the reform of the global governance system, and make a BRICS voice on international and regional hot issues, which not only effectively enhances the international discourse power of emerging market countries and developing countries, but also becomes an important platform for promoting South-South cooperation.
Be widely recognized
BRICS cooperation has been widely recognized by developing countries, and its status and role in multilateral mechanisms such as the United Nations, the G20, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund are constantly improving.
In the process of cooperation, the BRICS countries have formed the BRICS spirit of openness, inclusiveness, win-win cooperation, understanding and respecting the differences of national conditions, core interests and major concerns, and not interfering in the development paths and models of various countries.
Even in the case of occasional bilateral frictions, the BRICS cooperation mechanism still plays a role and sends out the BRICS voice representing the interests of emerging market countries and developing countries. These ideas and principles are in sharp contrast with the "small circle" and "centralized statement" drawn by some countries in ideology, and they are particularly precious in the context of the widening development gap between the North and the South and the weakening momentum of international development cooperation.
At the same time, the BRICS countries have established a variety of pragmatic cooperation mechanisms, forming a "three-wheel-driven" cooperation model of economic cooperation, political security and cultural exchange, and carried out pragmatic cooperation in dozens of fields such as economy, trade, finance, science and technology, agriculture, culture, education, health and think tanks, constantly enhancing the complementarity and diversity of BRICS countries.
