BREAKING
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.
Sheikh Qassem: The government’s latest decision [on the disarmament of the Resistance] is non-charter-based, and if the government continues down this path, it is not faithful to Lebanon’s sovereignty.

Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune touches on his country's endeavors in the international arena, stressing that Algiers' entry into the BRICS will aid the country’s progress more than international financial institutions have helped in recorded history.

Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune stated that Algeria’s entry into the BRICS will aid the country’s progress more than international financial institutions have helped in recorded history.

Algeria presented its formal application to join the BRICS earlier in November 2022. In December, the Algerian president expressed optimism that his country may join the alliance in 2023.

During a press conference Tebboune said, "The BRICS organization will help us [in development] more than other international financial organizations have helped us to date."

Elsewhere in his remarks, Tebboune pointed out that the BRICS bank has $100 billion, which is a larger capital than that of the World Bank. 

"BRICS will finance our projects, we will join their organization and unite politically," Tebboune said. 

Back in February, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Algeria is one of the main prospects for BRICS membership. At the time, Lavrov added that once Algeria joins BRICS it will not be forced to follow instructions if they contradict its national interests, noting that the organization is non-hegemonic.

It is worth noting that BRICS members account for 30% of the global gross output and 40% of the global population. The bloc includes the world's major developing countries: Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. It was also announced, recently, that a handful of medium-sized economies intend to join the bloc, including Argentina, Algeria, Iran, Indonesia, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt.
