Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to attend the BRICS Summit Russia in Kazan on October 22-23. Previously, New Delhi expressed opposition to Islamabad’s inclusion in BRICS during discussions about the group’s expansion.
The summit will be pivotal for both member and aspiring nations, marking a turning point in regional diplomacy. BRICS, consisting of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, has been working to challenge Western economic dominance, and adding countries like Pakistan could broaden its influence, especially in South Asia. However, balancing national interests and historical rivalries will be key.
The outcome of Pakistan’s bid and India’s role in that decision could signal a new phase in regional cooperation or underscore deep-seated geopolitical divides.
