BRICS summit in New Delhi concludes with joint declaration
The 18th BRICS summit concluded in New Delhi, India, with the adoption of the New Delhi Declaration. The group, representing major emerging economies of the Global South, emphasized inclusive economic growth, multilateral trade, and the need for reforms in international institutions to better represent developing nations.
On geopolitical issues, the member states reached a consensus calling for the resolution of conflicts through dialogue and diplomacy. Regarding the Middle East, the declaration expressed concern over escalating tensions and reiterated support for a two-state solution in the Gaza Strip, alongside calls for humanitarian access and the preservation of maritime and supply chain routes.
While the group addressed concerns over unilateral sanctions and trade barriers, the summit also highlighted the diverse interests within the bloc. Leaders sought to position BRICS as a force for global stability and a contributor to global governance, rather than an anti-Western entity, with India emphasizing strategic autonomy and the transition of the Global South from rule-takers to rule-makers.
