ME News message: On May 16 (UTC+8), the BRICS foreign ministers’ meeting held in New Delhi, India, concluded. Due to clear disagreements among member countries regarding the Iran war and the situation in the Middle East, a joint statement was unable to be issued. During the meeting, representatives from each country set out their respective positions and exchanged views on regional security issues. Some member countries expressed reservations about the situation in Gaza and the security issues in the Red Sea and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi emphasized at the meeting that Iran’s sovereignty is indivisible, and called for condemnation of the U.S.-Israeli military actions. In addition, Iran accused some countries in the region of indirect participation in the conflict. The UAE and some Gulf countries were accused of having security cooperation with the U.S. and Israel; the UAE denied this, saying its position was inconsistent with the reports. Analysts noted that the failure to reach a joint statement shows that strategic disagreements among BRICS countries on Middle East security issues have intensified. (Source: MLion)

The United Arab Emirates denies the cooperation, but the denial itself is quite subtle haha

The lack of a joint statement was expected; no one in the Middle East is willing to take a clear stance on this matter.

It's normal that the security of the Strait of Malacca involves too many interests and can't be easily agreed upon.

Analysis says the disagreement is intensifying — do we still need analysis? It's visible to the naked eye.

The atmosphere at this venue in New Delhi is probably quite tense.
