BRICS Summit 2026: 'Expect Exchanges Between Business Leaders' | Joint Coverage With CGTN | Lin G - Economic Commentator At CGTN | Exclusive

In a massive and unprecedented media collaboration, Republic TV joins forces with China's CGTN for an exclusive special joint broadcast ahead of the historic 18th BRICS Summit in New Delhi. With the suspense finally over and Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit to India officially confirmed, the stage is set for a blockbuster Modi-Xi bilateral meeting on the sidelines of the massive gathering at Bharat Mandapam.

Joining the high-octane broadcast, Lin G, a renowned Economic Commentator at CGTN, shares critical insights into the massive economic expectations from the 2026 BRICS formation. Highlighting the core focus on the Global South, Lin G emphasized that the world can expect significant and high-stakes "exchanges between business leaders" as the expanded bloc pushes for unprecedented financial integration. From strengthening the New Development Bank (NDB) and aggressively increasing reliance on local currencies, to developing faster cross-border digital payment frameworks, emerging economies are actively maneuvering to bypass Western financial dominance.

As New Delhi prepares to host the world's most powerful leaders under the ambitious 2026 theme of "Building for Resilience, Innovation, Cooperation and Sustainability", all eyes are firmly locked on how these business and diplomatic dialogues will shape the future of global trade. Will the highly anticipated Modi-Xi engagement thaw frozen relations and open new avenues for economic cooperation?
