Azerbaijan has expressed a keen interest in joining the BRICS group, according to an interview with TASS. The announcement comes on the eve of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s anticipated visit to Baku.
Azerbaijan’s bid to join this influential group reflects its strategic shift towards strengthening ties with major global economies and enhancing its international profile.
The republic, rich in energy resources and positioned at a crossroads of Eastern Europe and Western Asia, sees BRICS membership as a pathway to bolster its economic influence and secure a more prominent role in global affairs.
