NEW DELHI: India will host the BRICS National Security Advisers’ Meeting on June 22-23, bringing together senior security officials from member countries to deliberate on a range of evolving global security concerns, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) announced on Saturday.
The two-day meeting, to be held under India’s chairship of the grouping, will be chaired by National Security Adviser Ajit Doval. The gathering is expected to serve as a key platform for strategic discussions among BRICS nations at a time when governments across the world are confronting increasingly complex security challenges beyond traditional military threats.
According to the MEA, the meeting will centre on the theme, “Non-traditional security challenges confronting the world today.”
National Security Advisers and heads of delegations from BRICS member countries will exchange views on emerging risks that are reshaping the global security landscape.
A major focus of the deliberations will be the rapidly changing nature of national security threats. Participants are expected to examine how technological advancements are influencing security dynamics and creating new vulnerabilities for states and societies. The discussions are likely to cover issues linked to cyber threats, information security, digital infrastructure protection, and other technology-driven risks that have gained prominence in recent years.
