Russia holds the chairmanship of BRICS for the year 2024, and the meeting comes at a time when the group has expanded to include new members such as Egypt, Iran, UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Ethiopia, in addition to its core members—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.
This marks the second BRICS NSA meeting attended by Doval this year, following his participation in the 13th BRICS NSA gathering in Johannesburg in July 2023. His visit to Russia also follows a series of high-profile meetings involving Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who visited both Russia and Ukraine in recent months.
PM Modi held talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, addressing regional tensions and international security.
