BRICS Summit in New Delhi concludes with New Delhi Declaration

The 18th BRICS Summit, held in New Delhi on September 12-13, concluded with the unanimous adoption of the New Delhi Declaration. The expanded 11-member bloc—comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE—reached a consensus despite significant internal geopolitical differences.

The declaration focuses on strengthening multilateralism, reforming global governance, and increasing the representation of the Global South in international institutions, such as the United Nations Security Council. Key areas of cooperation include trade, technology, digital public infrastructure, and sustainable development.

Leaders also emphasized the role of the New Development Bank (NDB) in financing infrastructure projects and encouraged the expansion of its membership and use of local currencies. A notable diplomatic moment included a meeting between the leaders of Iran and the UAE on the sidelines of the summit.
