Myanmar junta’s ‘delusional’ Brics bid: seeking acceptance at any cost
Maung Maung Ohn, the junta’s information minister, articulated Myanmar’s desire to join Brics as an observer during a recent visit to Moscow, according to Russian state news agency Tass.
Seeking Brics membership represents the junta’s latest effort to solidify its standing as Myanmar’s legitimate government, according to Adam Simpson, a senior lecturer of international studies at the University of South Australia.
