Iranian Foreign Minister at the BRICS Foreign Ministers' Meeting in New Delhi

Iranian Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi, arrived today, May 14, 2026, in New Delhi to participate in the BRICS foreign ministers' meeting. According to reports in آخرین خبر, Araghchi was warmly received by the Indian Foreign Minister, who is hosting the event, with discussions expected to focus on regional stability, multilateral cooperation, and economic resilience.

In reports by خبرگزاری ایرنا – a news agency affiliated with the Iranian government – the event was described as taking place under the "shadow of the war in West Asia." IRNA claims that India hopes the conference will assist in finding solutions to what they term "American aggression" and its effects on Iran and members of the bloc. Furthermore, فارس بین‌الملل و سیاست خارجی noted that Araghchi's agenda includes a series of bilateral meetings with his counterparts from Russia, Brazil, Egypt, Malaysia, and Cuba.

Despite attempts to promote economic cooperation, آخرین خبر notes that in light of the "40-day war" and the ongoing tension between Iran and the UAE, the summit may not conclude with the publication of a joint statement. The key issues on the agenda, beyond economic cooperation, include security challenges in the Strait of Hormuz.

کانال اخبار سپاه پاسداران 🏴 confirmed Araghchi's arrival at the venue and reported on the commencement of official meetings, while emphasizing Iran's status as part of the effort to build an alternative power among "Global South" nations.
