What it’s about: This article discusses the meeting between the BRICS countries (Brazil, India, Russia, China, and South Africa) at the G20 summit in Osaka, Japan. It states in the title that for the BRICS countries, there is no resolution on Venezuela. The article continues on to discuss that this is a difficult topic for BRICS countries because they do not all support the same leader in Venezuela (only Brazil recognizes Juan Guaidó as leader of Venezuela), based on a quote from a Brazilian University professor.
Why it’s misleading: This article is titled after the opinion of a Brazilian professor, creating a story and presenting it as fact. Based on other reports, including an article by Reuters, it is confirmed that the BRICS countries are actively discussing ways to get Venezuela to the negotiating table and “how it might help to broker a resolution to the political crisis in Venezuela.” This report contradicts Sputnik’s report that BRICS countries are at odds and see no resolution for Venezuela.
