UNCTAD Reports on BRICS Trade Figures
Earlier this week UNCTAD released a report on BRICS trade figures and trade policy, with well-targeted and timely recommendations for the bloc’s trade policy. The report comes at a time when the BRICS is facing unprecedented pressure in the trade sphere, with a more coherent policy agenda for trade cooperation becoming a top priority for the coming years.

Every signal Iran sends publicly says peace.
Every action Iran takes privately says war.
The New York Times confirmed today that Ayatollah Khamenei, in early January, quietly delegated sweeping operational authority to Ali Larijani with explicit directives for regime survival in the event of his assassination.
Larijani, 67, Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council since August 2025, is now reportedly running key security and military affairs as a shadow government designed to function without its architect.
Here is the detail that should stop you cold.
Khamenei did not choose his son. Mojtaba Khamenei has been groomed for dynastic succession for years.
Every analyst covering Iran’s transition has modeled Mojtaba as the presumptive heir.
And in the moment Khamenei had to choose who would hold the state together under fire, he bypassed the bloodline entirely and handed it to a political operator with institutional relationships across the IRGC, the clergy, the judiciary, and the diplomatic co...

🚨🇺🇸 🇨🇳 US or China: Who's really winning the global trade race?
Forget the old story of “US vs China trade war” — the economic battlefield isn’t as simple anymore. Right now, the metrics point to a shifting balance of power:👇
🗣 China: Steady, confident, resilient
China’s trade machine continues to run hot despite pressure. It’s projecting stability, keeping export surpluses high and deepening ties with Europe and Southeast Asia — even as trade barriers from the US bite.
🗣 US: Volatility over stability
Under Trump's leadership, the US has relied on fluctuating tariffs, creating uncertainty for firms and trade partners. While the US still holds a lot of power, its erratic approach to trade is making it a riskier bet for long-term economic relationships.
📊 Hard data backs the narrative:
▪️ China’s annual trade surplus hit record levels (~$1.2 trillion), even as exports to the US fell — showing strong demand elsewhere.
▪️Business leaders in Germany are warning about China’s trade practices — indicating China’s growing commercial footprint.
▪️The US trade deficit remains high, especially in goods, despite aggressive tariff policies — showing that fundamental trade imbalances remain.
▪️Right now, China looks like it’s winning the trade race — not necessarily by out-tariffing the US, but by building predictability, deep market ties, and diversified partners.
👉 The US still has strengths — in technology, strategic alliances, and military presence — but its leadership in global trade is under strain.

🚨🇨🇳 DID CHINA SECRETLY TEST A NUKE?
U.S. intel thinks China may have pulled off a covert nuclear explosive test in June 2020 while working on a new generation of advanced nuclear weapons.
Assistant State Sec. Christopher Yeaw said the data looked exactly like what you would expect from a real nuclear explosive test.
Officials believe China is moving fast to modernize its arsenal, developing new tactical weapons and multi warhead systems.
China denies everything, with Liu Pengyu accusing the U.S. of distorting and smearing China’s nuclear policy.

🔴 Watch live: BRICS Money: The $170 Billion Plan to Build Africa
👉 https://www.youtube.com/live/t-YTgK5RppY
BRICS money is quietly rewriting Africa’s future — and the African Union just put a $170 billion price tag on it. In this special live episode of BRICSONOMICS, Think BRICS economist Ben Epstein breaks down how the 39th AU Summit in Addis Ababa turned water and sanitation into the 2026 strategic theme for Agenda 2063, and why that shift matters for power, growth, and sovereignty across the continent.
Here’s what we’ll unpack live:
- The 39th AU Ordinary Session: why water security, safe sanitation, and a $32B pipeline of “investment‑ready” projects (AIP) now sit at the core of Africa’s growth model.
- Ethiopia’s turning point: 10%+ growth, ultra‑low exports per capita, record GERD revenues and electricity exports, and the knife‑edge between debt restructuring and development.
- Agenda 2063 in practice: AfCFTA, SAATM and Ethiopian Airlines, high‑speed rail, Grand Inga, digital Africa, and how these flagships actually get financed — or stall.
- BRICS & the NDB: how “no‑conditionality” infrastructure lending, project preparation funds, proposed NDB guarantees, and blended finance aim to close a $130–$170B annual infrastructure gap.
- The geopolitics: PAPSS, local‑currency trade, logistics corridors like the Djibouti route, and what all this says about a multipolar financial order.
If you care about Africa’s development model, BRICS finance, and the real mechanics behind “de‑dollarization” and infrastructure statecraft, this one’s for you.

🌍 Did China just outsmart a US surprise attack on Iran?
🚀 By leaking satellite images of American jets, ships, and bases piling up in the Middle East, Beijing stripped away Washington's element of surprise. Joint drills with Russia and Iran in the Strait of Hormuz added real-time eyes on US moves, protecting a key Belt and Road partner.
🛡️ Could this BRICS masterstroke reshape Global South defenses against Western pressure—what's your take?

🔥 “Iran draws a red line: No surrender—even if the whole world stands against us.”
💬 Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian declared that Tehran will not yield to pressure from world powers, even amid tense nuclear negotiations with the U.S. 🇮🇷 In a bold counterstrike, Iran labeled the navies and air forces of all EU states as terrorist organizations—responding directly to the EU’s move to blacklist the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.
🤔 Do you see this as Iran standing strong for Global South sovereignty—or escalating confrontation with the West? Where do you think this defiance will lead next?
