00:08Of course, Jamie, they were addressing the beginning of the plenary session of the 16th BRICS Summit.
00:16And all of them were being, of course, broadcasted, but in the beginning after that,
00:22the cameras were switched off and they continued their plenary session behind closed doors.
00:28But what we heard during those few minutes, when they were addressing to the public,
00:33of course, to everybody, was that they are supporting the idea of a multipolar world.
00:38They are supporting the idea of resolving all unresolved issues
00:42in a peaceful manner throughout the world.
00:45And of course, the Chinese President Xi Jinping said that the world shouldn't underestimate
00:52and sideline the desires and the goals of the global South.

01:19bilateral meetings, among them China and India. Do we know what they've discussed?
