🇧🇷⛓🇷🇺 — 🌎 Russian President Vladimir Putin will not attend the BRICS summit in Brazil due to the risk of being arrested under an International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest warrant.

💬 Putin’s absence “is related to certain difficulties in the context of the ICC’s demands,” said Yuri Ushakov, the Kremlin’s international affairs advisor, during a press conference, referring to the arrest warrant issued in March 2023 against the Russian leader for the forced deportation of Ukrainian children.

🇧🇷 Ushakov added that “the Brazilian government took a weak stance, thus withholding permissions for our president to attend this meeting. The president will participate via videoconference. Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov will be in Brazil.”

🇨🇳⁉️🇧🇷 — 🌎 Chinese President Xi Jinping cancels his trip to Brazil for the BRICS summit and sends the Prime Minister in his place. If confirmed, this will mark the first time Xi has missed a BRICS summit

🇧🇷 Brazil’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Itamaraty) has not officially confirmed his absence, but according to sources, China’s ambassador to Brazil, Zhu Qingqiao, visited the Presidential Palace to communicate the likely cancellation.

➡️ Xi Jinping has attended all previous editions, including the virtual summits held during the pandemic. In 2023, in South Africa, he left the country shortly before his speech but still met with other leaders. Xi and Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) met twice in recent months: in November, during the G20 in Rio, and in May, at the China–CELAC Summit in Beijing.

🇮🇷 His absence comes amid the ongoing crisis between Israel and Iran. The two nations announced a ceasefire. Iran joined BRICS in 2024. In a statement, BRICS expressed “deep concern” over the bombings of Iranian nuclear facilities “of a peaceful nature.”
