BRICS accounted for 7% of global trade in the year 2000 and has grown to about 30% of global trade currently. The group says a so-called AIR-LIFT strategy is also on the cards to promote connectivity and trade between the member countries. “We have now created a model for the world that moves us away from an extractive approach in terms of economic engagement towards a collaborative approach where we can all benefit and why this is important for the African continent.
