BREAKING
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.
Sheikh Qassem: The government’s latest decision [on the disarmament of the Resistance] is non-charter-based, and if the government continues down this path, it is not faithful to Lebanon’s sovereignty.

Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has been invited by Chinese President Xi Jinping, as the periodic BRICS president, to attend the BRICS Summit 2022, along with several countries known as BRICS Plus.

Raisi will outline Tehran's standpoint on international issues as well as the development of trade and economic cooperation with other states.

BRICS is the acronym coined to associate five major emerging economies: Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.

Set to be hosted in Beijing, the summit holds BRICS countries' emerging economies, which make up around 25% of the global GDP and 40% of the population.

In televised remarks at the BRICS leaders' virtual summit, referring to the Western sanctions that pummeled Russia, Putin said that "only on the basis of honest and mutually beneficial cooperation can we look for ways out of this crisis situation, which developed in the global economy because of the ill-conceived, selfish actions of certain states." 

Within the framework of the BRICS, the heads of the member states' space agencies held the first joint committee meeting on space cooperation in a video call, as announced by the China National Space Administration in late May.

A week earlier, foreign ministers from the BRICS group of developing economies discussed measures to strengthen the regional and international collaboration among the five nations.

The organization's members are known for their significant influence on regional affairs. Since 2009, the governments of the BRICS states have met annually at formal summits. 

So far, Iran is the only country from West Asia to attend the summit.
