Turkey seeks "partner country" status with BRICS, aiming for stronger global economic ties.

Turkey's Trade Minister, Omer Bolat, announced that Turkey expects to receive "partner country" status with the BRICS bloc, a coalition of major emerging economies. Turkey had initially sought full membership to strengthen ties with both the East and West. Bolat denied claims that India blocked Turkey’s full membership due to its ties with Pakistan. The BRICS group aims to amplify the voices of emerging economies, and Turkey's partnership is seen as a step toward potential full membership in the future.
