Indonesia is officially joining BRICS, expanding the group of major emerging economies.
Brazil's government announced on Monday that Indonesia is officially joining BRICS as a full member, expanding the group of major emerging economies , which already includes Russia, India, China, and South Africa. Indonesia , the world's fourth most populous nation, previously expressed its interest in joining as a way to strengthen emerging countries and promote the interests of the Global South .
Brazil, holding the bloc's presidency in 2025, stated that member states approved Indonesia's entry unanimously as part of an expansion initiative initially approved at the bloc's 2023 summit in Johannesburg. While Indonesia's bid received approval in 2023, the country requested to join after its presidential election last year. President Prabowo Subianto assumed office in October. The Brazilian government emphasized that Indonesia aligns with the group's members in supporting global governance reforms and positively contributes to deepened cooperation within the Global South. BRICS also includes Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates
