According to India Daily, President Putin wants to make a new superpower coalition in the world, bringing together Russia, China, India and Brazil. Putin will be visiting Brazil on November 21-23 of this year, seemingly to establish a long term economic tie between the two countries, expanding Moscow’s geopolitical influence in the Latin American region. If this coalition comes to fruition it will bring three quarters of the population of the world together, with the “largest amount of natural resources and largest pool of technical and scientific talent.”
