"The economies of the BRICS bloc have been able to break the hegemony of the United States. They are the hope for promoting co-operation and complementarity among countries," Arce said.
He added that in order to build a multipolar world, the countries 'need to work on eliminating inequality' and create 'new blocs such as the BRICS group'.
