BRICS leaders today called for maximum restraint amid the escalation of the war in the Middle East, expressing deep concern over the continuation of tensions in the region. The call is part of the New Delhi Declaration, which reinforces the need to avoid actions that could further aggravate the situation.
The bloc's members also defended the maintenance of trade and energy flows, emphasizing the importance of not interrupting these activities even in the context of armed conflict. This position aims to protect global economic stability during the crisis.
The leaders also rejected the application of unilateral sanctions they consider contrary to international law. This position reflects the bloc's perspective on conflict resolution through multilateral mechanisms rather than unilateral punitive measures.
The New Delhi Declaration, which summarizes the positions of BRICS member countries, comes at a time of strong geopolitical tension, with the bloc seeking to project a unified voice on one of the most sensitive conflicts of today.
