India Issues Chair Statement After BRICS Meeting Amid Differences Over Gulf Crisis

NEW DELHI, ⁠May ⁠15 (Reuters) – India ⁠issued a chair’s statement ​on Friday at ‌the conclusion of the ‌annual ⁠BRICS ⁠foreign ministers’ meeting in New Delhi ​instead of a joint statement and said ​there were differing views ⁠among some ⁠members on ⁠the situation ​in the Middle East.

BRICS ​includes Brazil, ⁠Russia, India, China, South Africa, Ethiopia, Egypt, ⁠Iran, the United Arab Emirates and Indonesia.

Iran ⁠and the UAE are on opposing sides in Tehran’s war with the U.S. and Israel, during which Iran has ⁠targeted the UAE more than any other Gulf country.
