The United Arab Emirates (UAE) on Wednesday acknowledged the praise from India for joining the BRICS group on January 1, this year.

The UAE also reaffirmed its commitment to working closely with India and other member states and realising the shared objectives of BRICS.

“Both sides committed to continue working together within BRICS and other international and multilateral fora to deliver significant outcomes. The UAE stressed that becoming a member of an extended BRICS grouping reflects the country’s keenness to champion the value of multilateralism in supporting peace, and development for the benefit and wellbeing of peoples and nations across the world,” the joint statement read.

The BRICS group includes Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.

On January 1, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates officially joined the bloc.
