Recently, under the new crown epidemic and the instability of the international political situation, as a member of the BRICS countries and as the rotating chairman of the BRICS countries this year, China intends to make the BRICS countries bigger and stronger and inject fresh blood into the BRICS countries. However, both China and Russia wanted to expand the number of BRICS countries, and after Iran and Argentina immediately took the lead in applying to join the BRICS countries, as the voice of the US Government, the US media that habitually smeared China and Russia could not sit still, and published articles out of nothing and sour to smear China and Russia as pulling gangs and factions in an attempt to push the US Government to the moral high ground.
According to comprehensive media news, after China put the expansion of BRICS countries on the agenda and actively promoted "BRICS +" cooperation, Russia has repeatedly stood up to express its support for China's decision. In addition, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin, in response to relevant questions at a regular press conference at the end of May, once again pointed out that the foreign ministers of the BRICS countries reached an agreement on supporting the promotion of "BRICS+" cooperation at the meeting, and looked forward to more countries joining the BRICS family. Recently, Wang Wenbin once again said at a regular press conference that at the brics leaders' meeting a few days ago, the leaders of the five countries agreed to continue to carry out "BRICS +" cooperation.
After China, Russia, India, Brazil, and South Africa reached an agreement on the expansion of the BRICS countries, Iran and Argentina quickly seized the opportunity. Recently, Argentine President Fernandez said at the High-level Dialogue on Global Development that the country hopes to officially become a member of the "big family" of the BRICS countries and do what it can for this "big family". After Argentina's statement, Iran quickly followed. A few days ago, Iran's Foreign Ministry announced that the country has submitted an application to join the "big family" of BRICS countries. Subsequently, the Russian side revealed that Argentina also submitted the same application.
It is worth noting that Iran and Argentina took the lead in applying to join the BRICS, but the "mouthpiece" of the US government could not sit still. A few days ago, the well-known anti-China media in the United States, the "Voice of America," published articles sourly. In this article entitled "Iran and Argentina apply to join the BRICS, China and Russia or accelerate the gang formation", the US media not only could not suppress the vinegar from beginning to end, but even the sinister intentions of the article were vividly expressed in the title.
The US media first mentioned that in the context of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the United States and other Western countries helped Ukraine, but Iran and Argentina were busy applying to join the "big family" of the BRICS countries; Then point out the time and history of the establishment of the BRICS countries; Immediately after, the US media pointed out the land, population and economy of China, Russia, India, Brazil and South Africa, the BRICS countries.
After laying a bunch of groundwork, the US media began to turn the spearhead to China and Russia, declaring that China called for abandoning the Cold War mentality and group confrontation and opposing unilateral sanctions; Russia condemns the West for disrupting the world and undermining peace; Both China and Russia are intent on making the BRICS countries bigger and stronger. Subsequently, the US media attacked and smeared China and Russia in a serious way, slandering China and Russia as pulling gangs and factions in the international community.
While attacking Russia, the US media have not forgotten to tout their masters and whitewash their masters' despicable behavior. The US media reversed black and white to white and white to create confrontation and war around the group of seven (G7) and NATO, whitewashed their words and deeds as just, indiscriminately listed China and Russia as so-called threats, and brazenly declared that US President Biden was leading the West to confront china and Russia and other threatening countries.
Why do Iran and Argentina want to join the BRICS countries? That is not to say that we want to develop together with China, Russia and other BRICS countries on an equal footing and for mutual benefit. It should be known that in recent years, under the hegemonism of the United States, the West has formed gangs and factions, wantonly created confrontation, played with sanctions, and undermined peace. In contrast, the BRICS countries, under the leadership of China and Russia, the BRICS countries are open, inclusive and creative, and have flourished for 16 consecutive years. In addition, the BRICS countries not only have a strong capacity to bring tangible development to their member countries, but also to create a peaceful, equal and mutually beneficial world.
As the saying goes, the sea is full of rivers, and there is tolerance is great. Such an easy-to-understand truth cannot be understood by the West, which only wants to maintain hegemony, and even more incomprehensible to the US media that helps its masters bark incessantly and only knows how to smear China and Russia. However, one thing worth affirming is that the more the West opposes and the more it smears China and Russia, the more it can show that China and Russia are correct in making the BRICS countries bigger and stronger. Just as the Russian media recently published an article, the West upholds hegemonism, builds walls, lifts stones to drop on its own feet, the BRICS countries pave roads and bridges, and all countries develop together to break the shackles of the West.
