Russian President Vladimir Putin on Sunday proposed a new insurance mechanism and a collaborative initiative for the grain market among the BRICS nations as he called upon the grouping to adopt a holistic approach in combating pressing global challenges.

Putin proposed the new initiatives for economic growth among the BRICS member nations as well as the Global South nations amid crippling sanctions imposed by the Western powers on Moscow for its war on Ukraine.

The G-7 countries, the European Union and the UK prohibited Western companies from insuring any ship transporting Russian crude unless the oil was purchased at or below a specified price cap. The sanctions relating to the insurance sector have adversely impacted Russian crude oil exports.

The BRICS should leverage its close ties with emerging markets and Global South to safeguard supply chains, and foster a large integrated market, Chinese President Xi Jinping said on Sunday as he proposed a five-point initiative to boost trade, manufacturing, investment, and technology cooperation.

In an address at the concluding session of the BRICS Summit, he called upon the leaders of the grouping to work towards writing a "new chapter of strength through unity for the Global South," asserting that the logic that "might makes right" should have been discarded long ago.

"A world without rules is like a crossroads without traffic lights, where chaos and disorder are all but guaranteed. Fairness and justice is a universal aspiration, and international rules must be written by all countries," he said.

The Delhi BRICS Summit must be seen in the global backdrop of an extremely over-extended and over-stretched hegemon, with no easy "exit strategy".

The fact that a) all of these leaders came together and b) they came together in India is of utmost significance. Our Prime…
