Thus, the next year, the Western block must decide how to face the opposition of the world leadership led by China and Russia and the BRICS block. The paper focuses on economics. The result is more agreements than conflicts, especially about competitiveness, energy cost reduction, and military defense. However, politics will be interested more in social and welfare concerns. The concluding remarks of the paper will explain that Western growth is possible even in competitiveness supported by financial and great corporation growth despite the evidence of the strong economic power of BRICS. Politics in the USA and EUROPE will be attacked internally by political opposition claiming more welfare and environmental protection.
