Click here to access a BBC article which discusses the latest meeting of the BRICS economies in South Africa. It was said that the BRICS wanted to create a 'Development' bank...however, this article by Al Jazeera states that the talks have not agreed to set up the bank.
Check out the Al Jazeera news clip from 27th March 2013
There are so many development issues here. Possible questions include:
Do the BRICS economies trust each other?
Why are they so interested in Africa?
Will Africa benefit from the (possible) infrastructure projects or will there be strings attached?
What do they have to gain to meet without the powers of EU & USA?
