Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on Friday thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his valuable efforts to strengthen BRICS cooperation ahead of the group’s highly anticipated summit in New Delhi, beginning September 12. Addressing the BRICS Business Forum, Pezeshkian also thanked India’s government and people for graciously hosting the meeting. He said BRICS cooperation could be transformed into tangible economic realities through private-sector representatives, businesses and entrepreneurs. Pezeshkian criticised the use of sanctions and called for a BRICS environment where one country cannot harm another’s trade interests by manipulating financial institutions. His remarks came as he decried what he described as US “military aggression”, while emphasising stronger economic cooperation among BRICS members.
