Xi arrives in India for BRICS summit amid global tensions
Most outlets led with the timing of the BRICS summit in India and highlighted the ongoing wars in the Middle East and Ukraine as key discussion points. Several also noted the Iran war as a test for bloc unity, with some mentioning the U.S.-led conflict and its divisive impact on BRICS members. A few outlets, like 24 News HD and Aaj News, expanded the framing to include China among the participating leaders and emphasized the broader regional conflicts alongside economic issues. The Business Recorder and Hum News English included details about the U.S.-led war on Iran and the split between Tehran and Abu Dhabi, while the Daily Times and Dunya News focused more narrowly on the Iran war’s effect on the summit.
