Xi pushes 'Greater BRICS' economic ties to give bloc larger global role

Xi proposed five initiatives to deepen BRICS cooperation in AI, trade and investment, including an open-source zone and new forums.

  • On Sunday, Chinese President Xi Jinping unveiled a five-point initiative in New Delhi to deepen cooperation among "Greater BRICS" emerging economies in AI, trade, and manufacturing, aiming to weld the grouping into a practical platform for Global South development.
  • The bloc broadened its reach to include Iran, Indonesia, Egypt, Ethiopia, and the United Arab Emirates, signaling a strategic effort to transform a world order long dominated by the United States.
  • Xi's plan includes establishing a "BRICS-AI open source community" for large language models, a "special economic zone partnership," and an "engineer cultivation alliance" for joint development and mutual recognition of competency standards.
  • On Saturday, BRICS leaders adopted the New Delhi Declaration by consensus, expressing deep concern over Middle East tensions and criticizing unilateral tariff measures inconsistent with WTO rules.
  • China will assume the 2027 chairmanship following India's 2026 term, positioning the bloc to institutionalize these initiatives and evolve from "rule-takers into rule-shapers" within international financial architecture.
