External Affairs Ministry Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal stated that India is actively engaging with the member countries of BRICS to arrive at a common position on the ongoing conflict in West Asia.
Mr. Jaiswal made this statement while addressing the Inter-Ministerial media briefing in New Delhi this evening. He noted that some BRICS members are directly involved in the current situation in West Asia, and the differences among member countries have made it difficult for the grouping to forge a consensus.
He emphasized that as the current chair of BRICS, India has been facilitating discussions among member countries through the Sherpa channel. He noted that the most recent virtual meeting of BRICS Sherpas was held on March 12th to deliberate on the evolving situation.
