- Xi Jinping pushed for "Greater BRICS" economic ties aimed at giving the bloc a larger global role at the summit.
- China announced it will take the lead in fostering AI and technology cooperation among BRICS member countries, with Xi receiving a red-carpet welcome that coincided with warming India-China ties.
Why it matters: Xi is positioning China as BRICS's anchor for both economic coordination and AI/tech cooperation, while the red-carpet reception underscores that India-China tensions are thawing enough for both leaders to share a stage and project a unified bloc.
