Chinese state media slams West's 'bad mouthing' of BRICS
ECONOMIC TIMES, BEIJING | 15 October 2016 22:42 ISTCiting active participation by India and China in BRICS despite differences, Chinese official media today decried West's "bad mouthing" of the five-member bloc, saying disagreements among the members are "minor" and cooperation is the norm.
"BRICS countries themselves are different in many aspects. China and India have lived with territorial disputes, but the geopolitical contention between them is mostly hyped by some ill-intentioned people," state-run Global Times said on the BRICS summit in Goa beginning today.
