The leaders of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, meeting in New Delhi on Thursday, drafted a joint statement lambasting the West's "aggressive monetary policies" and dominance of global institutions.
Collectively known as the BRICS, the heads of the world's five largest emerging economies also took steps at the fourth annual summit toward greater unity and launched a proposal to create a financial institution that could eventually rival the World Bank.
Brics to use own currencies in trade
India and the other four Brics countries — Brazil, Russia, China and South Africa — on Thursday decided to work towards using local currency in trade.
This is expected to reduce the dependence on the dollar, cut transaction cost and double trade to $500 billion among them by 2015.
At the fourth Brics summit here, the five exim banks of the member-countries signed two agreements for this purpose. One is a master agreement on extending credit facility in local currency. And the other is a Brics multilateral letter of credit confirmation facility agreement.

It's the fact that Western governments put up with this junk that shows you they could care less about the health of their nations and care more about them and their buddies making a quick buck.
