2017年中国担任金砖国家主席国期间，习近平主席首倡举办金砖国家外长会晤。在金砖国家领导人战略引领下，外长会晤为增进五国政治互信、深化政治安全领域合作发挥了重要作用。作为2022年金砖主席国，中国期待同其他金砖伙伴就当前国际形势新特点新挑战，以及重大国际和地区问题进一步沟通协调，发出金砖国家团结合作、维护真正的多边主义、团结抗击疫情、共促和平发展的有力声音，重在为金砖国家领导人会晤做好准备。
During China’s chairship of BRICS in 2017, President Xi Jinping proposed the idea of holding the foreign ministers’ meeting of BRICS countries. Under the strategic leadership of BRICS leaders, the foreign ministers’ meetings have played an important role in strengthening political mutual trust and deepening political security cooperation among the five BRICS countries. As the BRICS chair for 2022, China looks forward to enhancing communication and coordination with fellow BRICS partners on the new features and challenges of the current international situation and major international and regional issues. We will send a clear message of BRICS countries working together in solidarity, upholding true multilateralism, staying united in fighting COVID-19, and promoting peace and development. More importantly, we will make good preparations for the BRICS Summit.
