00:00 The French President Emmanuel Macron expressed his concern over the expansion of the BRICS
00:13 (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) and warned against the risk of fragmentation
00:18 of the world.
00:19 At the annual conference of the ambassadors of the Republic, Macron stressed the will
00:24 of these emerging countries to build an alternative world order, perceived as a
00:28 questioning of the established Western order.
00:30 He also mentioned the confrontation between China and the United States, which violates
00:35 international norms and the international trade order.
00:37 The expansion of the BRICS raises questions about the global balance and the future
00:43 of international cooperation.
00:44 Macron stressed that this situation could lead to a fragmentation of the world,
00:50 thus endangering stability and dialogue between nations.
00:52 To avoid this outcome, France is determined to engage in discussions with all partners,
00:58 including the BRICS.
01:00 Currently made up of five countries, the BRICS bloc has recently attracted the attention
01:05 of 23 desiring states to join this economic alliance.
01:08 Six of them have already received an official invitation.
01:11 This expansion shows the growing importance of the BRICS on the world stage and their
01:16 desire to weigh in on international decisions.
01:18 The BRICS are not the only actors to question the established world order.
01:23 The rivalry between China and the United States, especially in the commercial field, is another
01:29 factor that disturbs the world balance.
01:31 Macron stressed that this rivalry endangers the respect of international law and the
01:36 trade order accepted by the international community.
01:39 Faced with these challenges, France wants to play an active role in the search for solutions
01:44 and in the preservation of the world order.
01:46 The French president has stated the need to dialogue with all actors, including those
01:52 who question the established order.
01:53 This reflects a desire to preserve world stability while responding to the aspirations
01:58 of emerging countries.
01:59 The expansion of the BRICS and the tensions between China and the United States raise
02:04 major questions as to the future of international relations.
02:07 The balance between the different world powers and the construction of a fair and equitable
02:11 world order are crucial issues for France and the international community.
02:16 In a world in rapid change, dialogue and cooperation remain the keys to preserving
02:21 world peace and prosperity.
