BRICS leaders call for 'maximum restraint' as Middle East war threatens unity
BRICS leaders meeting in New Delhi urged maximum restraint and a multilateral approach to the Middle East war, France 24 reports. The declaration reflects growing resistance among major Global South powers to the direction of Western military action against Iran. At the same time, differing interests inside BRICS show why the group is unlikely to function as a fully unified diplomatic counterweight to the United States and its allies.
