"This is, of course, a question that requires a consensus decision by BRICS member countries, but there have been no proposals on this matter so far. It has been understood that the name should remain unchanged," Peskov told reporters.
The organisation is attractive today for many nations, as it offers cooperation based on mutual respect, the official said, adding that international relations based on the dictate of one country over another are not accepted by numerous states today.
In addition, the presidential press secretary called the upcoming BRICS summit in Kazan one of the main events on the global agenda.
