The BRICS leaders “express concern over the current trend of sharply rising global military expenditures at the expense of adequate financing for the development of emerging countries.
“They advocate for a multilateral approach that respects diverse national perspectives and positions on crucial global issues, including sustainable development, hunger and poverty eradication, and global climate action.
“They also express deep concern over attempts to link security with the climate agenda.
“In addition to the traditional leaders’ declaration, three other documents reflecting the priorities of the Brazilian presidency were approved: the BRICS Leaders’ Framework Declaration on Climate Finance, the BRICS Leaders’ Declaration on Global Governance of Artificial Intelligence, and the BRICS Partnership for the Elimination of Socially Determined Diseases.”
