Leaders of the BRICS alliance are gathered in Delhi amid growing internal disagreements that could weaken the group’s ability to present a cohesive stance toward global issues, particularly in relation to Western powers. Analysts suggest the bloc’s expanding membership and differing national interests may be straining unity, raising questions about whether BRICS can deliver on its promise of an alternative economic and political voice. With tensions simmering over geopolitical alignments, the summit’s outcomes may reflect deeper fractures rather than a unified front. The meeting comes at a critical moment as the alliance navigates shifting alliances and economic pressures.


As Brics leaders meet in Delhi, divisions within the bloc make a united response to Washington unlikely.
