I never said it wasn't political, every trade agreement is political. What I said is #BRICS is not a military or political alliance it is an alternative system of multi polar trading free of interference from the current US hegemony system where international trade requires trading in US dollars.
For example, New Zealand, which is not even a #BRICS member country, has a FTA with its biggest trading partner China that means NZ and China can freely trade with each other in their own currencies.
