BRICS Leaders to Meet in New Delhi Amid Global Conflicts and US Tensions
Leaders of the BRICS bloc are set to convene in New Delhi on Saturday to discuss trade and investment, with wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, along with rising US-China tensions, expected to test the group's unity.
Leaders from the BRICS bloc of nations are scheduled to gather in New Delhi on Saturday for a summit focused on trade, investment and pressing global conflicts, according to France 24.
The meeting comes as the bloc faces mounting pressure from ongoing wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, as well as escalating tensions between the United States and China, France 24 reported.
These challenges are expected to test the unity of BRICS members and complicate the bloc's stated ambitions to play a greater role in global affairs, the report said.
France 24 did not specify further details on the summit's agenda beyond trade, investment and discussion of the conflicts, noting that the gathering is set to be dominated by these geopolitical concerns.
