"It was agreed during today's meeting of the Council of Ministers to establish a BRICS unit in the council to deal with the files of cooperation with the BRICS grouping and include in its membership the relevant ministers and officials," said a statement issued by the Cabinet on Wednesday.
The statement noted that Madbouly spoke during the cabinet meeting about his participation on behalf of Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi in the fifteenth BRICS summit, which was recently held in Johannesburg, South Africa.

The 15th BRICS summit was held on August 22-24 in Johannesburg in the presence of the leaders of China, India, Brazil and South Africa, while Russian President Vladimir Putin participated in this event via video and Moscow was represented by Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.
During the summit, the BRICS group made a historic decision to approve the
