Brazil began its presidency in BRICS with a clear call for world peace, advocating dialogue as a way out of wars and international tensions during the Foreign Ministers’ meeting at the Itamaraty Palace in Rio de Janeiro.

Brazil Assumes Leadership of BRICS with Focus on Peace and Diplomacy

In the official opening of the BRICS chancellors’ meeting, Brazil’s Foreign Minister, Mauro Vieira, used his speech to emphasize the urgency of diplomatic solutions for armed conflicts, directly citing the crises in Ukraine and Gaza. The meeting marks the beginning of Brazil’s presidency in the bloc in 2025 and was held at the historic Itamaraty Palace in Rio de Janeiro.

According to the minister, peace must be built on dialogue, respect for the sovereignty of countries, and multilateral cooperation. He stressed that BRICS’s role should be that of a stabilizing force in the international scenario, preventing the escalation of geopolitical disputes. The event was covered by outlets such as Gazeta News, which highlighted the pacifying tone of the Brazilian speech .

UN Reform and Multipolar World Return to BRICS Agenda

In addition to the appeal for peace, Mauro Vieira highlighted BRICS’s commitment to the reform of the UN Security Council. Brazil, according to him, believes that the current structure does not reflect the realities of the 21st century, with little representation of developing countries.

BRICS Summit of Heads of State Will Be in July

The ministerial meeting that opened Brazil’s presidency also served as preparation for the summit of BRICS heads of state and government, which will take place on July 6 and 7, again in Rio de Janeiro. The expectation is that the leaders of the member countries will deepen discussions on issues such as global security, sustainable development, and strengthening the Global South.

The official website of the bloc, brics.br, reported that the Brazilian presidency intends to promote a series of discussions on more inclusive and sustainable global governance throughout the year, reinforcing the importance of equitable partnerships among countries in the Southern Hemisphere.

BRICS as a Space for Strategic Cooperation Among Emerging Economies

Under Brazil’s presidency, BRICS aims to strengthen its role as a platform for coordination among emerging economies. The idea is to promote active diplomacy that seeks joint solutions to the economic, environmental, and social challenges faced by the group’s nations.

The event in Rio de Janeiro opened up space for new dialogues on technological cooperation, fair trade, and integration in areas such as health and food security, topics that will be further explored in meetings scheduled throughout the year.

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

SpaceX will dock a $843 million vehicle to the International Space Station to push a nearly 420-ton laboratory against the atmosphere and make the debris fall in a controlled manner into the ocean.

China opens the world’s first school where more than 100 humanoid robots from different brands will study together, each movement will be repeated up to 600 times a day and the data will feed a collective brain that will teach all the robots of the future.

Lock manufacturer from Rio Grande do Sul invests R$ 150 million to surpass R$ 1 billion in revenue, create 200 jobs, and double storage capacity, while choosing Santa Catarina to set up a new logistics center and speed up deliveries in Southern Brazil.

The Iron Beam combat laser from Israel goes into real operation and starts shooting down drones for about three and a half dollars per shot.

Bermuda Triangle: the real mystery lies beneath the Earth and not in the missing ships; scientists find a 20 km rock layer under the Atlantic, formed more than 30 million years ago at almost 50 km depth.

Ford ‘returns’ to Brazil in a triumphant and unusual way: a 11,000 m² theme park brings together 40 rare vehicles, a 1929 airplane with the original engine, a replica of Route 66, and attractions inspired by old USA in Serra Gaúcha.
