According to Brian Wong, a researcher at the CCCW, writing for Fortune, the primary threat to the ability of the BRICS to become a pillar of global governance does not stem from Trump, NATO, or the West. Instead, it comes from within the bloc itself. The risk lies in an overly rapid expansion combined with a lack of internal cohesion, which could prevent the group from meeting its expectations for reforming global governance.
Internal challenges and dispute management
The success of BRICS depends on its capacity to manage internal rivalries, balance the economic and political goals of its diverse members, and establish clear, enforceable guidelines. Without these measures, the bloc risks losing its strategic influence, despite its rapid growth and increasing presence on the global stage.
The stakes for BRICS
The challenge for BRICS is not external pressure, but internal unity. The true strength of the bloc will be measured by whether it manages to transform its growth rate into a strategic advantage rather than a factor of fragmentation.
