Brics leaders condemn Pahalgam attack; PM Modi calls for sanctions against terrorists
The BRICS has emerged as an influential grouping as it brings together 11 major emerging economies of the world, representing around 49.5 per cent of the global population, around 40 per cent of the global GDP and around 26 per cent of the global trade. read more From left, Indonesia's President Prabowo Subianto, South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa, Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi and China's Premier Li Qiang pose for a group photo at the 17th annual BRICS summit in Rio de Janeiro, Sunday, July 6, 2025. (AP Photo) In what is being seen as a diplomatic achievement for India, the BRICS nations on Sunday strongly condemned the April 22 terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam that killed 26 people. In a joint declaration issued after the BRICS Summit in Rio de Janeiro, the leaders called the assault 'criminal and unjustifiable,' and reiterated their commitment to combating terrorism in all its forms. The bloc — comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa and new member states called for united global action to root out terrorism and emphasised the importance of cooperation under international law. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'We express strong condemnation of any acts of terrorism as criminal and unjustifiable, regardless of their motivation, whenever, wherever and by whomsoever committed. We condemn in the strongest terms the terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir on 22 April 2025, during which 26 people were killed and many more injured. We reaffirm our commitment to combating terrorism in all its forms and manifestations, including the cross-border movement of terrorists, terrorism financing and safe havens,' it said. 'We urge to ensure zero tolerance for terrorism and reject double standards in countering terrorism. We emphasize the primary responsibility of States in combating terrorism and that global efforts to prevent and counter terrorist threats must fully comply with their obligations under international law, including the Charter of the United Nations,' it added. Prime Minister Narendra Modi also asserted that the victims and supporters of terrorism cannot be 'weighed on the same scale'. PM Modi's call for imposing sanctions on terrorists without hesitation comes against the backdrop of China blocking efforts at the UN Security Council in recent years to list several Pakistan-based terrorists. 'For personal or political gain, giving silent consent to terrorism, supporting terror or terrorists, should not be acceptable under any circumstances,' he said. 'There should be no difference between words and actions regarding terrorism. If we cannot do this, then the question naturally arises whether we are serious about the fight against terrorism or not,' he asked. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The top leaders of BRICS held deliberations on a range of pressing challenges facing the globe on the first day of the grouping's two-day annual summit in this seaside Brazilian city.

Brics voice 'serious concerns' about Trump tariffs, call for 'unconditional' Gaza ceasefire
In a final declaration, the 11-member bloc, including Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, and new members such as Iran, warned that Trump's 'indiscriminate' import tariffs were threatening the global economy read more Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva (C) speaks during the first plenary session of the BRICS summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. AFP Brics leaders meeting in Rio de Janeiro on Sunday issued a call for urgent global action, voicing alarm over the United States' escalating tariff policies under President Donald Trump and urging an immediate, unconditional ceasefire in war-torn Gaza. In a final declaration, the 11-member bloc, including Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, and new members such as Iran, warned that Trump's 'indiscriminate' import tariffs were threatening the global economy. 'We voice serious concerns about the rise of unilateral tariff and non-tariff measures which distort trade and are inconsistent with WTO rules,' the leaders said, referring to the World Trade Organization. The bloc described such policies as illegal, arbitrary, and disruptive to global trade, supply chains, and economic stability. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The Brics group, which accounts for around half the world's population and 40% of its economic output, has long been critical of unilateralism in international trade. While its members differ on many issues, they have found unity in opposing Trump's protectionist policies. The statement comes amid renewed threats from Trump to reimpose tariffs on allies and rivals unless new trade agreements are reached by August 1. On the Middle East, the Brics bloc also demanded urgent action to halt the 22-month-old war in Gaza, calling for negotiators to reach an 'immediate, permanent and unconditional ceasefire.' 'We exhort the parties to engage in good faith in further negotiations to achieve an immediate, permanent and unconditional ceasefire,' the statement said, while calling for a 'full withdrawal of Israeli forces from the Gaza Strip and all other parts of the Occupied Palestinian Territories.' The summit's Gaza statement came as talks between Israel and Hamas resumed in Doha, amid intensifying international pressure to end the conflict. The war began with Hamas's October 7, 2023, attacks on Israel, prompting a devastating Israeli military response. According to the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza, at least 57,418 people, mostly civilians, have been killed since the Israeli campaign began. The United Nations has deemed the figures credible. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD While the Brics group includes Iran, a key adversary of Israel, it also comprises nations like Russia that maintain significant diplomatic or economic ties with both sides. Their joint call signals growing frustration among emerging powers over the war's global humanitarian and geopolitical fallout. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to meet US President Donald Trump at the White House on Monday. Trump has said he hopes for a breakthrough in ceasefire negotiations within the coming week.
