Research Analyst, Manohat Parrikar IDSA, Mr. Rajorshi Roy’s commentary titled 'BRICS Strategizes Collective Response to COVID-19' has been published by the All India Radio (AIR) World Service, an External Services Division of AIR, on May 1, 2020.
Given the political, economic and ideological diversity of BRICS members, as evidenced by Russia and South Africa shielding China at the UNSC despite its COVID-19 acts of commission and omission, the litmus test will lie in BRICS ability to strengthen mutually beneficial cooperation while setting aside their differences, writes Mr. Roy.
