BRICS agrees on joint declaration before New Delhi summit: Report
The bloc overcame divisions over the Iran war and sanctions after more than four days of talks, officials said.
- On Saturday, September 12, 2026, BRICS leaders unanimously adopted the New Delhi Declaration at their summit in India, strongly condemning the April 22, 2025, Pahalgam terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir that killed 26 people.
- India, serving as BRICS chair this year, successfully brokered consensus after foreign ministers' meetings in May failed to produce joint statements due to sharp divisions between Iran and the United Arab Emirates over West Asia conflicts.
- The declaration mandates 'zero tolerance' toward state-sponsored cross-border terrorism and welcomes the BRICS Counter-Terrorism Working Group, emphasizing disruption of terror financing and dismantling of safe havens.
- Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged member nations to translate commitments into tangible results, stressing the bloc must evolve into a 'rule-shaper' in global governance ensuring the Global South gains greater voice.
- Beyond security, leaders prioritized economic cooperation through expanded use of national currencies among members and called for reforms to global institutions including the United Nations, with China scheduled to host next year's summit.
