Modi calls for global governance reform at BRICS summit
India’s prime minister has urged greater empowerment for the Global South, but the source provides no detail on proposed reforms or whether BRICS members support the call.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has called for an overhaul of global governance and greater empowerment for the Global South at the BRICS Summit, according to Al Jazeera.
The remarks were made as the expanded grouping meets in New Delhi for its 20th anniversary. China’s Xi Jinping, Russia’s Vladimir Putin and Iran’s Masoud Pezeshkian are among the leaders attending.
The summit is taking place amid divisions over conflicts, trade pressure and disrupted energy and shipping. Those tensions form part of the broader setting for the gathering, but the available source does not link them directly to Modi’s remarks.
Al Jazeera did not report details of the reforms Modi proposed or define what greater empowerment for the Global South would involve. It also did not report a response from other participants.
The available material does not establish that Modi’s proposal has been adopted as a BRICS position.
