Xi Jinping Calls for High-Quality BRICS Cooperation at 16th Summit

At the 16th BRICS Summit on Wednesday, Chinese President Xi Jinping called on member nations to work towards the high-quality development of greater BRICS cooperation. Addressing fellow leaders, Xi emphasized the importance of solidarity among BRICS countries in fostering global governance reform and supporting the Global South.

“This summit has decided to invite a number of nations to become partner countries,” Xi announced. “This is another important step forward in the development of BRICS.”

He urged BRICS members to be “guardians of common security,” advocating for peace and stability. Xi highlighted the need to uphold three key principles: no expansion of the battlefield, no escalation of fighting, and no provocation by any party, aiming to de-escalate global conflicts such as the Ukraine crisis as soon as possible.

Emphasizing innovation, Xi called on BRICS nations to be pioneers of high-quality development. He encouraged collaboration in green industries, clean energy, and sustainable practices, noting China’s willingness to leverage its advantages to expand cooperation in these areas.

“We should build a BRICS for justice and lead the reform of the global governance system,” Xi stated. He stressed the importance of enhancing the representation and voice of developing countries, urging BRICS members to respond to the call of nations wishing to join the cooperation mechanism.

Xi also highlighted the urgency of reforming the international financial architecture. He called for strengthening the New Development Bank and promoting alignment of the international financial system with the changing dynamics of the global economy.

In a bid to foster cultural exchange, Xi announced that China will establish 10 overseas learning centers in BRICS countries over the next five years, providing training opportunities for 1,000 education administrators, teachers, and students.

Leaders attending the summit praised the development of the BRICS mechanism and its significant role in addressing global challenges. They committed to enhancing unity, promoting an equitable multipolar world, and fostering inclusive economic globalization that benefits all.

The summit concluded with a declaration announcing the establishment of the BRICS partner countries, marking a significant step in expanding the group’s global influence.
