The 2014 BRICS summit will be the sixth annual diplomatic meeting of the BRICS, a grouping of major emerging economies that includes Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. It will be hosted by Brazil, as the first host country of the current five-year summit cycle;[2] the host city will be Fortaleza.[3] Though Brazil hosted a four-member BRIC summit in April 2010, 2014 will mark its first full BRICS summit;[4] the 2010 summit in Brasília did not include South Africa, which joined the grouping in December 2010.[5]
Background
Following the 2013 BRICS summit in Durban, South Africa, the BRICS countries released a joint statement summarising the results of their discussions and naming Brazil as the host country for the 2014 summit.[2] Having agreed to set up a new international development bank during the 2013 summit,[6] the member countries reportedly intend to complete the necessary arrangements for this bank prior to the 2014 summit.[7] The summit was initially scheduled for March 2014, but was shifted to a later date at China's request; it is now likely to occur in July.[1]
Attendees
The heads of state or government of the five BRICS nations will attend the summit.
