The Iranian government leaves alot to be desired, but it’s strange why we’re in bed with ultra-repressive Saudi Arabia that also leaves much to be desired. Even stranger are the nations signaling they wsnt to move closer to BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, etc. Countries like Iran, even Pakistan, etc. Uber-conservative/nationalist Bolsonaro was against sanctions agaisnt Russia, the Hungarian leader doesn’t seem averse to Russia either. Conservative Treehouse showed a map sometime back where around 80% of the world’s countries didn’t support sanctions agaisnt Russis. Point is, strange world we live in...
Some articles have said Saudi Arabia is looking towards joining BRICS.
“Alot” is correctly written a lot.
The Saudis aren’t in this bed anymore.

Re: the Hungarian leader doesn't seem averse to Russia either...
Strange descriptive language coming from an alleged FR Conservative.
Not one of those three countries - Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Hungary - showed any hostility to the USA or Israel while Trump was President.
“Even stranger are the nations signaling they wsnt to move closer to BRICS”
Not so strange or mysterious. BRICS is moving toward a rare earth mineral backed monetary system.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRICS#Member_countries
Bangladesh, Indonesia, Mexico, Turkey, Egypt, Nigeria, Sudan, Syria, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan have expressed interest in membership of the BRICS.[69][70][71][72]
In 2022, both Argentina and Iran confirmed their attendance at the 2022 BRICS summit upon invitation by host nation China, as well as confirming their desire to each permanently join the bloc.[73][74]
BRICS
Brazil
Russia
India
China
South Africa
Add Mexico, Turkey and Saudi Arabia and that’s a big chunk of the global economy.
After 20 years in Afghanistan, trillions of dollars, thousands of lives and absolutely zero accomplished aside from losing $85 billion in .mil equipment, add other incusions with zero results and our newfound wokeness, maybe the rest of the world sees the US as unserious and unfit to be the global leader of things.
