Putin aims to boost BRICS influence at upcoming summit to challenge dollar dominance
Summary: Russian President Vladimir Putin will attend the BRICS summit on October 22, joining leaders from around 24 countries, including India and China. This marks a significant change from last year when he stayed home due to an arrest warrant.
The summit in Kazan aims to strengthen the bloc's influence and challenge Western dominance. Putin seeks to position Russia as a key player in a growing coalition that could undermine the U.S. dollar's global standing.
This meeting follows the expansion of BRICS from five to ten members last year. The summit is seen as an opportunity for member countries to discuss strategies for economic cooperation and reducing reliance on Western financial systems.
