Brazil's President Lula da Silva has dispelled speculation about BRICS currency development and de-dollarization efforts at the upcoming 2026 summit. The 18th BRICS gathering, scheduled for India, will instead focus on bilateral trade settlements in local currencies.

"Trade in local currencies isn't anti-dollar," da Silva emphasized, "but provides more options for bilateral trade." The Brazilian leader notably endorsed rupee-real transactions between India and Brazil while dismissing broader de-dollarization talks as overstated by public discourse.

This clarification comes as BRICS nations increasingly prioritize local currency trade mechanisms. Da Silva singled out India and China as potential engines for global economic growth, reinforcing the bloc's strategic shift toward multipolar financial systems without immediate plans for a unified currency.
