“We’re entering a stage of changes in the official foreign policy. Bearing this in mind, this issue requires a much more thorough analysis than the one conducted by the previous government, which was invited to join BRICS,” he said at a press conference.

Manuel Adorni confirmed that the President Javier Milei had officially notified BRICS members that his country would not join the group. The letters, sent to the leaders of Russia, China, Brazil and India, state that the new Argentine authorities ‘currently consider it inappropriate to join BRICS’.
