On Wednesday, members of the Iranian Speaker’s Committee of Speaker of the Parliament announced that Speaker of the Parliament Mohammad Bagger Galibahu will depart for Brazil with the head of a high-ranking parliamentary delegation to attend the 11th edition of the Blick Parliamentary Congress Forum.
The forum will be held in Brasilia from June 3-5, 2025, he said, adding that global health, trade, investment, climate change, artificial intelligence governance, peace and security, and institutional development are key topics of the forum.
The BRICS Forum has been established since 2015 as an important mechanism for inter-zone dialogue.
The Iranian delegation will also introduce the state’s status at the forum.
BRICS is a bloc of emerging economies around the world. It was founded in 2006 by Brazil, Russia, India and China under the name of the “BRIC” group. South Africa joined in 2010 and became “BRICS.”
Iran became an official member of BRICS this January after the bloc invited the Islamic Republic and five more countries to participate at the 15th Annual Summit in South Africa in August 2023.
