The statement was made by South African Foreign Minister Naledi Pandor during a press conference on the latest preparations for the 15th BRICS Summit to be held in South Africa from August 22 to 24.
The summit is likely to formulate the bloc’s expansion criteria for countries that want to join. With more than 60 heads of state invited to the summit, there should be a large number of hopeful countries in attendance. Morocco will now be joining that list.
