India announced that its diplomats have brokered a consensus among all 11 BRICS members on a joint declaration to be presented at the upcoming New Delhi summit, ending weeks of intensive negotiations. Senior negotiators, known as Sherpas, worked through late‑night sessions to bridge the divide between Iran and the United Arab Emirates, the two newest members of the grouping.
The deadlock over the paragraph describing the war in West Asia had persisted since the foreign ministers’ meeting in May, when no agreement was reached. The conflict, which escalated on February 28 after a joint US‑Israel strike on Iranian targets, has seen Tehran retaliate against US bases in the Gulf, including those in the UAE. With the summit scheduled for early September in New Delhi, Indian officials accelerated talks to finalize the language before the leaders convene.
The dispute reflected broader regional tensions, as Iran and the UAE have been at odds for six months over the fallout from the strikes. By achieving a unified stance, the BRICS bloc signals its intent to present a coordinated diplomatic front on the Middle‑East crisis, while India’s role as host underscores its growing influence in shaping the group’s collective foreign‑policy messaging.
