“Participants in the BRICS Foreign Ministers' Meeting held in the Indian capital reached mutual understanding on almost all items of the agenda”
DISPUTED
The claim states participants reached mutual understanding on 'almost all items'. However, evidence from web search results explicitly contradicts this, stating that the bloc 'faces divisions over Iran's war, rising oil prices, and competing regional interests' and that a 'deadlock precludes joint statement' due to clashes between Iran and the UAE.

“Following the meeting, a chairperson's statement was published, held this year by India”
DISPUTED
There is a direct contradiction in the evidence regarding the nature of the output. One source states the meeting 'concluded with the adoption of a joint statement', while another explicitly states they 'could not agree on a joint statement' and instead India released a 'chair's statement' highlighting differing perspectives.
