India opened its capital to the BRICS summit, convening heads of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa for a multilateral gathering. The event occurs against the backdrop of the Iran war, which analysts say now frames diplomatic calculations for the bloc. Reuters reports that the Iran war is testing the bloc’s unity, while Nikkei Asia notes the summit marks dual milestones and pushes the limits of cohesion among members.

NDTV outlines expectations for economic cooperation but flags heightened security concerns. Responsible Statecraft underscores that the war looms large over discussions, suggesting that member states will weigh geopolitical risks alongside trade talks. Coverage varies on how the war will shape concrete outcomes; some outlets focus on logistical challenges, others on strategic implications, leaving details of any policy shifts unclear.
