The summit of the BRICS group and countries close to it, hosted by Russia, ends today in Kazan. President Vladimir Putin is scheduled to be discussed by the UN Secretary General, who is visiting Russia during the day Antonio Guterres with.
Guterres’ participation in the meeting has been harshly criticized because Russia is violating the UN Charter by waging a war of aggression against Ukraine.
The BRICS group aims to build a competitive alternative to the international system and institutions it considers too Western-led.
