... projects that span from Moscow to Islamabad.
Moreover, the BRICS grouping, which brings together Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Ethiopia, Iran, Egypt and the United Arab Emirates, offers another avenue for Russia–Pakistan cooperation. While India is a member of BRICS, Russia and Pakistan can still find common ground within this framework to address global economic challenges, call for a more equitable world order and collaborate on issues like sustainable development and climate change.

... indicated commercial interest in the NSR. However, they may be interested in specific scientific research activities proposed by Russia to develop expertise. Regardless, I do not rule out investment by the New Development Bank in Arctic projects of the AZRF in the future. In my opinion, the most promising project for investment by BRICS countries, including India, is the Eastern Transport and Logistics hub in Vladivostok, which is now scheduled to be completed by 2027-2028. This will ...

Unpacking GCI: China’s Strategic Vision Comes of Age
Can Moscow make a meaningful contribution to an improvement in China-India relations? The trilateral Russia-India-China (RIC) format has existed for more than 20 years, but it has been gradually overshadowed by BRICS and the SCO. However, maybe the time has come to put more emphasis on RIC.
For instance, Moscow could offer Beijing and New Delhi joint trilateral development, transportation and research projects in the Russian sector of the Arctic region. Trilateral ...
... what their authors intended. These sanctions catalyzed an active search by most members of the international community for mechanisms of interaction that would be resistant to Western sabotage.
The BRICS experience in this sense is very illustrative. Russia’s trade and economic interaction with BRICS partners has only grown since the large-scale and unprecedented restrictions were imposed on our country. We are reaching record trade levels with Brazil, India and China.
There has been a steady development of the whole range of cooperation in three key areas: politics and security, economy and finance, and humanitarian contacts. The recent examples of practical achievements in BRICS include the launch ...
... region, not only influencing them.
India's approach to the South Caucasus not only correlates with Russian and Iranian regional interests, but also complements them. In this regard, discussing regional issues on existing international platforms involving Russia, Iran and India (e.g. EAEU and BRICS), which Iran has already joined, may be of some interest. There are at least two identifiable instances where Turkey’s may clash. With this in mind, a political or diplomatic response from Ankara cannot be excluded.
... develop your own systems. You will say, “Hello, I don’t need your payment system. I want my own system.” It can be through BRICS, through somebody else. In the next two years, you will develop something for sure! You will come up with it! Their [foreign] technology will pay and your scientists will suddenly say “hey, I need to do something about this “ and crack it. So you [Russia] will be an island. China will be an island. India will be an island. If our relationship is good now, you will allow me to talk to you, but if tomorrow the relationship is ...
... brewing US-China conflict. It is in their common interests to resist the emerging bipolarity and, where possible, to mitigate its negative repercussions, with an emphasis on promoting multilateral mechanisms of international cooperation.
For example, Russia, India and China are members of the BRICS and the SCO. Moscow and New Delhi should make additional efforts to ensure that these institutions are not going to evolve into “the leagues of extraordinary gentlemen”, but instead will become effective tools in the search for a common denominator ...

What Could Take BRICS Forward?
What India therefore did throughout the course of the last 100 or so days of the Ukrainian Conflict was decisively intervene so as to prevent Russia from having to countenance becoming either bi-multipolar superpower’s “junior partner” ...
... entails periods of growth, agenda expansion, predominance of centripetal forces, crisis passing, when it is essential to review goals and objectives and synchronize views. In the last few years, nearly a decade into its establishment and operation, BRICS is facing a crisis. On the one hand, the crisis has a specific set of causes, which include an economic downturn in three of its countries (Russia, Brazil, South Africa) as well as the worsening contradictions between China and India or between China and Brazil. The accumulated dissatisfaction with the actual results of the grouping’s ten years of operation has also contributed to these trends, since many initiatives remained mere slogans, including the goal to amplify the ...
