Why Brics can’t do away with US dollar even as currency cooperation rises

AI Summary
Recent statements from Brazil's President Lula indicate that BRICS nations are unlikely to create a shared currency to challenge the US dollar. Despite ongoing discussions about dedollarization, the bloc is instead focusing on alternative methods of monetary cooperation. These include promoting trade in member countries' own currencies, establishing currency swap arrangements, and developing seamless payment systems. The BRICS nations, including Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, have been exploring ways to reduce reliance on the US dollar in international trade. While a BRICS currency is not currently under consideration, the group will likely continue to pursue other avenues for financial collaboration.
