Pakistan is one of those nations which does not learn anything even after being rejected. It has become known that Pakistan has applied for its inclusion into BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) in 2023.

Though BRICS has included Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates as new members last year, Pakistan still does not have access to BRICS.

This is mostly because of India's veto. Becoming a member of BRICS depends on the consensus of all members. It becomes impossible due to India's veto.
