Venezuela continues to work towards joining the BRICS, the Russian Embassy in Caracas told Izvestia.
Venezuela is aware of the growing role of BRICS on the world stage and, of course, attaches great importance to cooperation in this format.
“As for the admission of Venezuela or any other country to the BRICS, this is possible only by consensus. We have a rule: in order to accept any candidate for this organization, the BRICS association, you need the consent of all participants in this association. It is impossible to take such a step without this,” Vladimir Putin said at a press conference following the summit in Kazan in 2024.
To become a part of the association, it is necessary to enlist the support of all its members. We see that Caracas does not stop working in this direction, the Russian diplomatic mission noted.
