"Efforts will now be directed towards ensuring that all member countries of BRICS, in their newly expanded composition, determine their format of participation, level of cooperation with BRICS," he said, adding: "This is one of the main tasks that will fall on the Russian chairship in 2024."
The diplomat stated that additional efforts will be directed to enhance collaboration within the association among both new participants and those
exhibiting interest in BRICS. The terms of future cooperation within the group are also to be defined.
Currently, "contacts are underway on the work within the framework of the association between BRICS sherpas and sous-sherpas, but also contacts are being established with all countries at the level of relevant departments," he continued.
The BRICS summit was held on August 22-24 in Johannesburg under the chairship of
South Africa. The country's President Cyril Ramaphosa announced at the final press conference that Argentina, Egypt, Iran, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Ethiopia will join the association on January 1, 2024.
