BEIJING — Leaders from five of the world's top emerging economies will discuss a coordinated stance on economic issues such as commodity price fluctuations at the mid-April BRICS summit, Assistant Chinese Foreign Minister Wu Hailong said Saturday.
"We hope all sides can strengthen coordination and mutual cooperation on reform of the international currency system, commodity price fluctuations, climate change and sustainable development," Wu told a news conference.
China hoped that the summit, which will bring together leaders of China, Russia, India, Brazil and South Africa in the southern Chinese beach resort of Sanya, would be able to coalesce views ahead of the G20 summit in Cannes, France, later this year, Wu said.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
