China's President Xi Jinping and India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi were among the world leaders joining Vladimir Putin in Kazan this week for the 2024 BRICS summit. This marks the first such gathering since the group expanded to include new members: Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates. Based on this week's discussions, BRICS seems poised to grow even further, with countries from across the Global South eager to join.

But what does this all mean for the global balance of power?

Joining Juliet Mann on this edition of The Agenda are Arkebe Oqubay, former Senior Minister and Special Adviser to the Prime Minister of Ethiopia and now British Academy Global Professor at SOAS in London; Hussein Haridy, Egypt's former Assistant Foreign Minister; Radhika Desai, Professor in the Department of Political Studies at the University of Manitoba and Director of the Geopolitical Economy Research Group; and Michele Geraci, former Undersecretary of State at the Italian Ministry of Economic Development.
