Mabrouk described the BRICS nations as “a political, economic and financial alternative that will enable Tunisia to open up to the new world.”
He stressed that Tunisia's accession to the group would give it major economic gains, which would positively affect the social conditions in the country.
Alegria had earlier announced plans to join the BRICS group next year.
Comprising 31.59% of the world’s GDP as of 2022, the BRICS nations’ total economic output has now surpassed that of the G7 group’s, which at the same time stood at 30.39%, down from 50.42% in 1982.

Well I hope no country punishes Tunisia for having the intention of joining the BRICS.
