watso should double check - butt from memory, russia was a part of brics ..
IFFFFF (and only if) russia is a member of BRICS - then russia has plenty of countries to trade with - and sanctions against russia will not work ..
mmm meeting of BRICS this month in south africa !!!
guess that australia will not be there as we are tied to closely to the americans ..
watso cannot wait for the american $ to become of no consequence .. in which case australia will be forced to trade in other currencies ..
in the meantime, australia as a good vassal american state - simply mouth american talking points in relation to ukraine - send a few bushies and some paper planes ...
present day australian political leaders should listen to the great PAUL KEATING - who advocates for a more neutral australian foreign policy
