  • Islamabad has sought support from China and Russia, while also trying to strengthen its case for joining the bloc.
  • India’s position matters because BRICS decisions on membership require consensus, giving New Delhi a key say over Pakistan’s entry.
  • Pakistan sees BRICS membership as a way to expand economic cooperation and gain a stronger role in the Global South.
