There is some full on delusion on here. The end of the dollar, the west isolating itself (including Australasia, most of Africa, Chile and most of central America, Canada), the return of the gold standard and what was the other one, Qatar and the rest of the Gulf, the middle east, joining BRICS.
I know there are some fanciful Bond villain style world domination ideas floating around Russian media, but this is as likely as the alternative comedians taking over Britain in the 80s.
Look a bit more carefully at those jingoistic colourful 'shows', they are clearly under the 'light entertainment' category. They say whatever their masters want to them to say without any critical analysis.
The members of the G20 are: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Republic of Korea, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Turkey, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the European Union.
The BRICS countries showing of their splendid newfound new world order, eh? The only thing to note is why is the 'EU' there as well as France, Germany and Italy. There should surely be one or the other but not both.
