Ambassador Kumar stated that the membership of Ethiopia in the BRICS gives it a much closer opportunity for a much closer interaction with the BRICS member countries.

‘If we see the economic landscape, the commercial landscape and the human capital of Ethiopia, this can bring a synergy into the new developing world order. Most of the BRICS members, or all of the BRICS members, are developing countries,’ he elaborated.

ambassador said.

As BRICS members ‘we feel that Ethiopia brings value to the BRICS Plus membership. It comes with a lot of conventional knowledge, wisdom, and represents a large part of Africa and the sentiments of Africa. We are seeing Ethiopia, as a valuable partner for not only India, but also for the BRICS Plus countries.’
