Russia-India-China Grouping Never Formalised at BRICS Summit 2026

The summit, held in 2026, confirmed that while Russia, India, and China have engaged in informal dialogue and cooperation, there has been no formalisation of a trilateral grouping. The absence of a structured framework was noted by multiple sources. No official documents or agreements were presented to establish a formal Russia-India-China bloc. The discussion focused on bilateral and multilateral relations within the broader BRICS framework.
