Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi called on BRICS member states to condemn the United States and Israel for their ongoing military campaign against Iran during a meeting in New Delhi on May 14, according to Middle East Eye [1]. Araghchi accused the United Arab Emirates of direct involvement in the aggression against Iran, stating, “The truth is that the UAE was directly involved in the aggression against my country” [2]. The meeting marked the first time Iran and the UAE shared a room since the start of the war, as reported by Al Jazeera.
Araghchi’s appeal came during a two-day gathering of BRICS foreign ministers, where he also described Iran as a victim of what he called “illegal expansionism and warmongering” by the US and Israel, according to a statement on his Telegram account [3]. The BRICS bloc currently includes 11 countries from the Global South, including both Iran and the UAE, and Iran had hoped the group would issue a joint condemnation of the US-Israeli war. However, the talks ended without a joint statement, exposing deep divisions within the bloc over the conflict [4].
