The recent BRICS summit in Rio de Janeiro was the 17th annual gathering of the organisation.
But it was the first since 13 new partner countries joined up - including Malaysia, Indonesia and Turkey, and matters were largely overshadowed by Donald Trump's threat on the last day of the meeting to impose a further 10% in tariffs on BRICS members for what he called "anti-American policies".

Joining Juliet Mann on this edition of The Agenda to consider that question are Patrick Bond, Distinguished Professor and Political economist at the University of Johannesburg, Dr Ilango Karuppannan the Former Malaysian High Commissioner to Singapore and former Ambassador to Lebanon and Cyprus, and Dr Mohan Kumar India's former Ambassador to France.
