Meeting in Brazil, Brics foreign ministers fail to issue joint statement
- Foreign ministers from the BRICS group met in Rio de Janeiro on April 29 and failed to issue a joint statement following two days of talks.
- The split came amidst disputes over support for permanent U.N. Security Council seats and opposition to U.S. Trade policies, with Egypt and Ethiopia notably refusing to endorse the statement.
- As chair, Brazil released a statement condemning the increase in unjustified protectionist actions that violate World Trade Organization guidelines, while also highlighting concerns about a divided global economy and declining support for multilateral cooperation.
- The BRICS foreign ministers agreed on a unified stance regarding tariff concerns, as highlighted in Brazil’s official statement, which notably did not explicitly mention the United States despite apprehensions about its tariff policies under President Trump.
- The failure to unify on a joint communique highlights internal discord within the expanded BRICS group and may weaken its influence against U.S.-led global economic policies and multilateral institutions.
