IEA hoping to attend next BRICS meeting
The ministry has asked Moscow to allow the economic deputy prime minister of the Islamic Emirate, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, to attend the summit
Afghanistan’s ministry of foreign affairs has formally asked to attend the BRICS summit in Kazan next month.
In a written request, the ministry asked Moscow to allow the economic deputy prime minister of the Islamic Emirate, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, to attend the summit.
In 2001, the Goldman Sachs Investment Institute proposed a new alliance to forecast future economic trends.
At its 61st session of the UN General Assembly, in 2006, the foreign ministers of Brazil, Russia, India and China started preliminary talks.
They called themselves BRIC and their first meeting was held on June 16, 2009 in Yekaterinburg, Russia.
When South Africa joined in 2010, the name of the alliance was changed to BRICS.
BRICS was designed to bring together the world’s most important developing countries to challenge the political and economic power of the wealthier countries of North America and Western Europe.
This coalition has seen significant expansion in recent years and now includes Iran, Egypt, Ethiopia and the United Arab Emirates.
Before this, BRICS leaders (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) announced that Afghanistan should not threaten countries or become a training center for terrorists. Türkiye has also announced its readiness to join this economic alliance.
Tajik authorities say their border guards clashed with militants who crossed into Tajikistan’s Khatlon region from Afghanistan on Tuesday night.
Tajikistan’s State Committee for National Security said in a statement that militants intended to carry out an armed attack on one of the border outposts.
Three militants were killed and two Tajik soldiers died in the clash. From the scene, three firearms—an M-16 rifle and a Kalashnikov assault rifle—three foreign-made pistols equipped with suppressors, ten hand grenades, one night-vision device, explosives, and other military equipment were seized, according to the committee.
This was the third reported attack from Afghanistan into Tajikistan in the past month, with the previous ones targeting Chinese nationals.
The Islamic Emirate previously said it assured Tajikistan it was ready to tighten border security and conduct joint investigations.
