The BRICS National Security Advisers’ (NSA) meeting began in New Delhi today under India’s chairmanship, bringing together top security officials from member nations to deliberate on emerging global and regional challenges. The high-level dialogue is part of the ongoing BRICS framework and aims to strengthen collective resilience against threats ranging from terrorism and cyber security to critical infrastructure protection.
Officials noted that the discussions will also cover new domains such as digital security, space cooperation, and safeguarding multilateralism. The NSA-level track complements ministerial and working group meetings held earlier this year, reinforcing BRICS’ commitment to dialogue and cooperation in shaping inclusive global security frameworks.
India’s leadership in hosting the meeting underscores its role in advancing strategic coordination across the Global South, with emphasis on peace, stability, and sustainable security partnerships. The outcomes are expected to feed into the upcoming BRICS Summit later this year.
