The presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the meeting of BRICS countries, which started in Johannesburg, the capital of South Africa, can put a big stop to China's 'economic intrusion' in African countries. For this, India can not only take the help of its old friend Russia, but can also counter the huge investment made by China by taking advantage of the better relations between South Africa and Russia. Foreign affairs experts believe that in the meeting of BRICS countries that started on Tuesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi can also take major decisions and take several diplomatic steps during this period to reduce China's interference in African countries. In fact, in the last few years, China started building its network there by investing more than two hundred billion dollars in different countries of Africa. In this, China has invested heavily in infrastructure as well as road bridges and ports.

Amrendra Kathua, a foreign affairs expert and ambassador to different countries, says that the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi is considered very important in the meeting of BRICS countries that started in Johannesburg. He says that after 2019 i.e. Covid, this is the first such meeting of BRICS countries in which all the leaders will be face to face. In such a situation, in the presence of the heads of state of all the countries, there will be discussion on the mutual harmony of the five countries as well as future economic strategies.

However, Amarendra Kathua says that during this time it will be most important to firmly counter China's strategy to rein in "economic infiltration" in African countries. He says that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will try his best to give a big message to all the small African countries there, including South Africa and Brazil, regarding the investment made by India in African countries.

Foreign affairs experts say that relations between South Africa and Russia have strengthened in recent times. India can get a big benefit from this. Amarendra Kathua says that due to their old strong relations, India and Russia can generate more confidence than China in other countries of this continent including South Africa and Brazil. In such circumstances, India can counter China on a very large scale by preparing a complete road map and blueprint for investment in this entire continent.

Former senior foreign service officer HM Sinha, who was posted in different embassies of African countries, says that by investing heavily in poor African countries, China not only made the governments there in its favor, but also developed a large network of its country through these countries. strengthened from Through the strengthened network, China is not only increasing its trade, but it is also keeping a close watch on Europe and America from the African continent.
