Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi arrived in New Delhi late Wednesday to attend the BRICS foreign ministers’ meeting. The two-day session, scheduled for Thursday and Friday, is regarded as a key preparatory stage for the 18th BRICS Summit to be held in September, hosted by India.

According to diplomatic sources, Araghchi will hold a bilateral meeting with Indian Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar and engage with other participating ministers and representatives on issues of mutual interest. The visit underscores active diplomatic coordination among BRICS members amid rising regional tensions. The meeting is expected to address global economic instability, energy security, and the future of multilateral cooperation, with a focus on forming a unified stance among member states.

Diplomatic observers view this gathering as not only a routine consultation but also a platform for shaping future policy alignment within the BRICS framework.
