The full membership of new countries in BRICS will begin on January 1 2024, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa said on Thursday.

Finally! I was waiting for this since we applied last year, I'm honestly surprised they invited Egypt considering the current economic situation. Maybe this will help us get out of the crippling weight of foreign debt. Also surprised Algeria wasn't invited when it's more ideologically aligned to current BRICS countries, while Egypt tries to play both sides since the 70s (although it's increasingly looking east recently).
