BRICS nations call for 'maximum restraint' in Middle East war
Chinese President Xi Jinping, who joined Russian, Iranian, Indian and other leaders in India's capital, told the summit that the Middle East war "does not serve the common interests of the international community".
Chinese President Xi Jinping, alongside Russian, Iranian, Indian and other BRICS leaders, urged for maximum restraint in the ongoing Middle East conflict. At a summit in New Delhi, the 11-nation group expressed deep concern over the escalation of tensions in West Asia and called for actions that could further aggravate the situation to be avoided.
The joint statement, issued after intense diplomatic efforts by host India, aims to bolster BRICS' global influence and address conflict, trade turbulence and energy security. With China making its first visit to India since 2019, the leaders emphasized the importance of complementing each other's strengths, supporting one another, and advancing together, while acknowledging the underlying territorial dispute remains unresolved.
