Brics members agreed in New Delhi on Saturday to continue the push to expand trade and payments in local currencies to counter US pressure.
The member nations also found enough common ground to overcome some of their biggest diplomatic splits.
In addition, Chinese President Xi Jinping used his address at the Brics summit to deliver a thinly veiled critique of US policies, calling on members to deepen cooperation in areas such as artificial intelligence.
Xi proposed an initiative on “AI-empowered new industrialisation” designed to deepen collaboration on industry and supply chains, according to state news agency Xinhua.
