The summit of the informal group of states comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa (BRICS) is being held in Russia’s Kazan.
PM Modi congratulated the success of the BRICS grouping over the fact that many other nations want to join it.
“We have been in touch with all sides in the Russia-Ukraine problem. It has always been our position that all conflict can be solved with dialogue. We believe there should be peaceful solutions to conflicts. India is always ready to help bring peace,” PM Modi said.
There will be a ‘Kazan Declaration’ at the end of the summit, when five new BRICS members will be formally added.
The BRICS Summit visit is PM Modi’s second visit to Russia this year. He had been to Moscow in July to attend the 22nd India-Russia Annual Summit where he held a bilateral meeting with Mr Putin. He was also conferred with Russia’s highest civilian award, the Order of St Andrew the Apostle at the Kremlin.
