Ambassador Kanwal Sibal explains the challenges faced by the Russia-India-China (RIC) grouping and why it did not succeed. He highlights how mutual suspicions, especially between India and China, and Russia’s concerns about a powerful China prevented RIC from becoming a strong alliance. Instead, BRICS expanded with the inclusion of Brazil and South Africa, forming a more effective and globally relevant platform. The discussion also covers how US unilateralism and unpredictable policies under Trump have pushed countries toward BRICS as a hedge against American dominance, focusing on cooperation in trade, development, and global governance reforms.
