Our core beliefs go hand-in-hand with our overall objectives of supporting the transition to a multipolar world and promoting peaceful resolutions to conflicts.
- A multipolar world is to be welcomed, as it provides better chance for global security than a unipolar world
- Disagreements can always be settled through diplomacy and negotiations. War and conflict should not be the means of resolving nation disputes
- Military interventions rarely achieve the desired results and should only be used during critical situations
- Any hope for nations’ development is rooted upon cooperation and diplomatic engagement in a political arena in which moral considerations trump states’ self-interest
- The neo-liberal economic agenda promoted by the United States has not been beneficial to some states and should not be treated as a ‘one size fits all’ solution to world problems
- The BRICS and other emerging markets should be allowed to develop in a manner that they see fit
- Good relations between the West and the BRICS, plus other emerging markets, should be encouraged
- The media should play a bigger role in providing unbiased information to the public
- The public must have access to all the relevant information in order to come to an objective conclusion on political developments
