Serbia is anticipating an invitation to the upcoming BRICS summit, the Goa Chronicle reports. The potential invitation reflects Serbia’s strategic efforts to diversify its diplomatic and economic partnerships beyond its traditional alliances with the European Union and Western countries.
For Serbia, engaging with BRICS offers an opportunity to align with a group that advocates for a multipolar world order and supports the sovereignty of nations in the face of global power dynamics. Given the current geopolitical landscape, where tensions between the West and countries like Russia and China are heightened, Serbia’s interest in BRICS can be seen as a balancing act, allowing it to maintain relationships with both Western powers and Eastern partners.
Serbia’s economic ties with BRICS nations, particularly Russia and China, have grown in recent years, with investments in infrastructure, energy, and defense sectors. Joining or closely associating with BRICS could further enhance these relationships, providing Serbia with new avenues for trade, investment, and technological cooperation.
