The President of Russia Vladimir Putin is likely to not attend the BRICS Summit in Brazil, owing to an outstanding arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC).

In light of these legal concerns, the President is expected to participate in the summit via video link.

BRICS was founded as BRIC by Brazil, Russia, India and China in 2009 and South Africa joined the following year. The bloc has since admitted Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Indonesia, and the UAE as full members and invited Belarus, Bolivia, Kazakhstan, Cuba, Malaysia, Nigeria, Thailand, Uganda, and Uzbekistan as “partner countries”.
