Palestine is expected to submit its application to join the BRICS, a group of emerging economies, after its upcoming summit in October in the city of Kazan, southwestern Russia.

Earlier, Putin invited Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to attend the BRICS summit in Kazan.

“This invitation means that despite all the crimes, killings and destruction in the Gaza Strip, our message is that Palestine wants to live and to develop,” Ambassador Nofal added.

BRICS includes Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. In January, it welcomed Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the UAE as full members.

    A wrong action for the right reasons is still a wrong action

      Does it feel good to pontificate on the morals of people that are desperate for survival while undergoing genocide? Like does it make you feel like an enlightened moral arbiter?

      Don’t understand how joining an international group of countries is wrong.

      If you mean to say that since Russia and China is part of the group making it the wrong group to be a part of. Then you must think even United nations is wrong.
