In the West at the mention of the BRICS project is habitual smile, although in the long term, the Alliance of Russia, China And other countries "3rd world" is able to influence the world order, writes.

And few were aware that the movement of the tectonic plates of geopolitics begins between the Urals And the Pacific ocean, where Russia And China begin to create a new world order in which there is no place for dominance of America And Europe.
