"Russia is convinced that the results achieved during India's BRICS chairmanship will give an additional qualitative boost to the interaction of the association's members in combating corruption and highlight BRICS' contribution to relevant global efforts," the ministry said in a statement.
The meeting discussed practical aspects of cooperation between the competent authorities of member states in combating corruption and improving the effectiveness of mutual legal assistance, the statement said.
