Iranian President Departs For BRICS Summit, Bilateral With PM Modi Scheduled

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has departed from Tehran to attend the BRICS Summit. A crucial bilateral meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Pezeshkian is scheduled to take place at 6:15 PM this evening. During the discussion, Prime Minister Modi is expected to reiterate the need for peace in West Asia. This follows a previous interaction between both leaders two weeks ago on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit, where India articulated a message advocating for peace and emphasizing that ongoing conflict cannot persist.
