Meeting between China, Russia, and India was not a Brics summit and did not exclude Brazil from the bloc

The meeting that went viral, falsely suggesting Brazil’s exclusion from the Brics group, actually took place during the participation of the Iranian president at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit. The post wrongly used this event to claim that Brazil was being isolated from the bloc, even though the meeting was not a Brics summit. The Brics group, which includes Brazil and South Africa, remains intact, and there has been no suggestion of their exclusion.
