Sri Lanka is to participate at the next BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa) summit from October 22-24 on the invitation of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

However, none of the JVP/NPP political leadership will be attending the summit as they will be engaged in campaigning for the parliamentary elections.

BRICS was formed to unite the economically developing countries to challenge the political and economic power of the economically wealthier nations of North America and Western Europe. Russia is the chair for the BRICS summit of 2024.

The invitation to attend was delivered to President Anura Kumara Dissanayake by the Russian ambassador Levan S. Dzhagaryan. The former Wickremesinghe Cabinet recommended applying for membership in BRICS. The membership is pending.

The new member states of BRICS are Egypt, Iran, Ethiopia, and the United Arab Emirates.
