BRICS Nations to Gather without Xi, Putin

RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL, JUL 4 – BRICS summit focuses on economic cooperation and global governance reform amid absent leaders; the bloc represents 40% of the world population and over 35% of global GDP, analysts say.

  • The 2025 BRICS summit will commence on July 6 in Rio de Janeiro, with the event being hosted by Brazil under the leadership of its president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.
  • The summit occurs without Chinese President Xi Jinping, absent for the first time since 2012, and Russian President Vladimir Putin, who will participate via video link amid legal concerns.
  • The meeting aims to enhance cooperation among a now-expanded BRICS bloc on industrial financing, climate action, artificial intelligence, and governance amid internal divisions and US tariff threats.
  • President Lula emphasized exploring alternatives to the US dollar for intra-BRICS trade, acknowledging political challenges, while officials plan cautious references to the United States.
  • The summit’s results may shape BRICS's global role amid difficulties building consensus and competing US-China interests as Brazil prepares for a contested presidential election.
