Abstract: A few years ago everybody knew nothing about BRICS. It was just an abbreviation . Now BRICS is playing more and more significant role in international affairs . There is no doubt that in a few years it will become one of the most powerful global players . In all fields: economic, political, crisis resolution, innovations. For all of us it is very important to create conditions for a better stable prosperous and fair world. How shall we act? Thinking about the past? Lusting to what is gone, basing our calculations only on what we have today or taking into consideration all new elements of today and future developments? These are political and philosophical challenges not only to Russia that considers itself as a natural bridge between the European Union and BRICS, but to the EU and BRICS as well. Positive answers to these questions constitute the core of this article.
