BRICS Will Dominate the World in the Next 3 Years (2025-2028)

BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) is rapidly transforming into a global powerhouse that could overshadow Western influence. With its expansion and economic strategies, BRICS is poised to reshape global finance, trade, and geopolitics. Here’s a detailed breakdown with numbers:

1. De-Dollarization & BRICS Financial Systems

A. Shift Away from the U.S. Dollar

  • In 2022, 84% of global trade was conducted in U.S. dollars. By 2024, that number fell to 73%, largely due to BRICS efforts.
  • China and Russia now settle over 90% of their trade in yuan and rubles instead of the U.S. dollar.
  • The BRICS Pay digital payment system is expanding, allowing seamless transactions in local currencies.

B. BRICS Currency & Reserve Bank Plans

  • A new BRICS currency (possibly gold-backed) is under discussion, aiming to challenge the USD’s 58% global reserve currency share.
  • The New Development Bank (NDB) has issued over $33 billion in loans and plans to increase non-dollar lending by 30% annually.

C. BRICS Gold & Foreign Reserves Strategy

  • China and Russia have been stockpiling gold aggressively: China: 2,235 tons (2023) → 2,500+ tons (2024) Russia: 2,299 tons (2023) → 2,400+ tons (2024)
  • Gold-backed financial alternatives could erode trust in the fiat-based Western system.

2. BRICS Economic Growth & Resource Control

A. BRICS vs. G7 GDP Growth

  • BRICS GDP (PPP) 2024: $60+ trillion (31.5% of global GDP)
  • G7 GDP (PPP) 2024: $55 trillion
  • Projected BRICS share by 2030: 40%+ of global GDP

B. BRICS Expansion & Economic Influence

  • New BRICS Members (2024-2025): Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Iran, Argentina
  • Combined GDP after expansion: $65+ trillion (PPP-adjusted)

C. BRICS Population vs. Workforce Power

  • BRICS Population (2024): 3.5+ billion (44% of the world)
  • India: Fastest-growing workforce, adding 10 million workers annually
  • China: 400 million+ middle-class consumers, fueling global demand

3. Energy & Commodity Dominance

A. BRICS’ Share of Global Resources (2024)

  • Oil Production: 44% of global supply (Russia, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Iran)
  • Gas Reserves: 50%+ (Russia, Iran, China)
  • Rare Earth Metals: 70% controlled by BRICS (China leads at 63%)
  • Food Production: 33%+ of global food supply (Brazil, India, Russia)

B. BRICS Oil Trade Shifting Away from USD

  • China & Russia: Over $200 billion in annual energy trade settled in yuan/rubles
  • Saudi Arabia & UAE: Moving towards accepting yuan for oil (Petroyuan system)

4. Strategic Alliances & Global Shifts

A. BRICS Geopolitical Influence Growth

  • BRICS+ (expanded members) increases influence over Asia, Middle East, Africa, and Latin America
  • Belt & Road Initiative: China invested $1.2 trillion in infrastructure across 150+ countries
  • India-Africa Trade: $200+ billion projected by 2025

B. Military & Defense Cooperation

  • Russia-China joint military drills increased by 50% in the last 5 years
  • BRICS Space Program planned for 2026
  • China & Russia investing $500+ billion in defense tech & AI warfare

5. The Decline of Western Influence

A. U.S. & EU Economic Instability

  • U.S. National Debt: $34.6 trillion (2024), projected to hit $40 trillion by 2028
  • EU Energy Crisis: Europe’s gas costs remain 3-4x higher than BRICS nations
  • Inflation: U.S. 3.7% (2024), EU 4.1% (2024), compared to BRICS nations averaging 2.5%

B. Shifting Trade Routes & Economic Dependence

  • The U.S. imports $200+ billion in goods from BRICS nations annually, making it dependent on BRICS manufacturing and resources.
  • If BRICS restricts exports or increases costs, Western economies could struggle with inflation and supply chain crises.

Conclusion: BRICS’ Path to Global Domination

By 2028, BRICS will likely: ✅ Control 50%+ of global energy production ✅ Shift over $10+ trillion in trade away from the U.S. dollar ✅ Hold 40%+ of global GDP (PPP) ✅ Influence 60%+ of developing nations through trade, energy, and investment

If BRICS successfully executes its expansion and financial strategies, it could dominate global trade, finance, and geopolitics within the next 3 years.
