BRICS is “at the forefront of a multipolar world” and Venezuela will be an “excellent addition” to the grouping, the country’s deputy UN envoy Joaquin Perez said.
Venezuela’s deputy permanent representative to the UN spoke about the significant role of the BRICS association in world politics and the country’s desire to join it.
“We believe that a multipolar world has already emerged. And now it is being strengthened, and BRICS is at the forefront of this new multipolar world. Venezuela wants to contribute to the consolidation of this new world,” Joaquin Perez told RIA Novosti.
According to the official, Venezuela will be a “great addition” to BRICS, including in view of its large oil reserves.
We will remind, earlier Venezuelan Foreign Minister Ivan Gil said that the newly elected President of the country Nicolas Maduro received an invitation to the summit of the BRICS countries in Russia.
