25 Countries Now Prepare to Join BRICS Alliance: A New World Order?

The geopolitical landscape is shifting as two dozen countries are now preparing to join the BRICS alliance, signaling a potential move towards a multipolar world. This expansion could have significant implications for global trade and economic power.

Which countries have applied to join BRICS in 2025?

The interest in joining BRICS is substantial. More than 20 countries, including Algeria, Bangladesh, and Nigeria, have formally applied to join BRICS, hoping to be part of a multipolar world. These nations see BRICS as an alternative to the traditional Western-dominated economic order.

The 24 countries want to promote their local economies and currencies. A key component of this shift involves the potential adoption of a new currency for global trade, further challenging the dominance of the US dollar.

The 2024 Expansion & Beyond

The BRICS alliance already welcomed new members in 2024. On Janu, Putin welcomed Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. As Russia kicks off the BRICS summit, the new alliance may just see its biggest expansion yet. This initial expansion has further fueled interest from other nations looking to diversify their economic partnerships.

The potential addition of 25 more countries would significantly increase the bloc's influence, representing a substantial portion of the world's population and GDP. This expansion could reshape global trade dynamics and accelerate the trend towards a more balanced and multipolar world order.
