Indonesia has been admitted as a full member of the BRICS bloc of developing economies, the group’s presiding country, Brazil, has announced.

Indonesia’s candidacy was endorsed by BRICS leaders in August 2023, according to the foreign ministry of Brazil, which holds the group’s presidency for 2025.

However, the world’s fourth most populous nation opted to formally join the bloc only after the formation of its newly elected government last year.
