BRICS, a group of emerging economies, has issued a joint declaration supporting a Gaza ceasefire and advocating for a two-state solution for Palestine. The declaration emphasizes the importance of addressing the root causes of conflicts and reaffirms the group's commitment to peaceful resolution through dialogue, consultation, and diplomacy.
Additionally, BRICS leaders expressed concern over rising nuclear risks and stressed the need to uphold nuclear safeguards, safety, and security, particularly during armed conflicts.

Furthermore, BRICS condemned unilateral tariff and non-tariff measures, arguing that they distort trade and violate World Trade Organization rules.
