Senior Research Fellow at the Mapungubwe Institute for Strategic Studies (South Africa) Naeem Gina took part in the meeting of the Valdai Club.

He told in an interview REN TV that the United States is now using the African Growth and Opportunity Act as leverage.

Actually, now it is being used as manipulation – if you don’t change your attitude, you risk losing your status“, he notes.

At the same time, he does not think that Washington will withdraw South Africa from this bill.

“It is more beneficial for America to have South Africa as a party to this agreement, because otherwise the chance increases that South Africa will become a full-fledged ally of Russia,” Jim thinks.

He also said that BRICS today represents an important moment for the world as a whole. This is the emergence of a new alliance that can affect the balance of the world. At the same time, Gina believes that in the next 15-20 years the world is unlikely to leave the dollar.

“Of course, we will not see the formation of a new world currency in the next 15-20 years, the US dollar will retain its status, but what can happen among the BRICS+ members is the emergence of trade relations among them, but with the help of their own currency. And in the future, this could seriously affect the global economy if the US dollar weakens”Gina noted.

According to him, Western values, which are so often spoken about in the United States, are being violated by Washington itself.

“The United States, for example, does not live by the principles of democracy, although it actively promotes them. It is enough to look at how America respected human rights in relation to Palestine,” – says the expert.
