China pushes for developing world\\\'s rights as BRICS summit opens

China will dedicate itself to ‘perfecting’ the role developing countries play in international affairs to give them better representation and a greater say, President Xi Jinping said ahead of a summit of BRICS nations in Brazil. China has already started doing this by promoting international development banks which will either be led by China or will have a very strong Chinese role, as opposed to Western-dominated institutions like the World Bank. Brazil, China, India, Russia and South Africa are due on Tuesday to sign off on a new development bank being launched by the BRICS emerging market nations. Xi, in an interview with South American media released by China's Foreign Ministry, said ‘We will ... dedicate ourselves to perfecting the international system of governance and proactively push for expanding the representation and right to speak for developing countries in international affairs.’ ‘We will come up with more Chinese proposals and contribute China's wisdom,’ Xi added, without elaborating, according to BBC.
