I don't see Argentina on the list? Why isn't Argentina on the List? They're better than any of those countries! Argentina doesn't want to be there anyways.

It's China and India which have 1.5 billion people, each.

It's Russia, with 150 million people in 12 times zones and 20,000 nukes.

It's Brazil, 200 million people.

Indonesia should be there ,maybe Turkey...

South Africa is there for symbolism, to get Africa in there. SA has a smaller GDP than Argentina by 200 billion yet 10 million more people. Symbolism.

Any questions? No I don't care being part of the BRICS, which are dirt poor people, just like we don't care being part of Latin America, part of a EU trade treaty, just like we don't care about negotiating with the UK, with Mercosur, or care about what the USA says, or the Germans/Italians and their pension funds.

We don't care... lala-lalaahla. :)

How does it feel being irrelevant to us? :p

“we don't care about negotiating with the UK” - your actions say something different
“with Mercosur” - your actions say nothing different.
“or care about what the USA says” - You're the ones who created the bonds.

So basically you're a sociopathic country that doesn't care about the consequences of your actions. That makes a lot of sense.

Quote from CFK today: 'We can't even manage to get our lemons to enter the US market.'

Well that's a big market to lose for starters. How many more USAs?...
