BRICS is not opposed to the use of the US dollar, Russia's ambassador to India, Denis Alipov, said, according to TASS.
Alipov framed the bloc's purpose differently, describing BRICS as a platform that allows developing countries to have a stronger voice in global affairs.
The comments come amid ongoing international discussion about the role of the US dollar in global trade and the extent to which BRICS nations are seeking alternatives to it.
Alipov's remarks suggest a more measured position from Russian officials on the currency question than some previous characterizations of BRICS' aims.
No further details were provided on specific policy steps the bloc might take regarding currency use among its members.
