ANKARA (Sputnik) - Turkiye is closely monitoring the expansion policy and development of processes in BRICS, Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said.
Russian Presidential Aide Yury Ushakov earlier told reporters that the number of states wishing to cooperate with BRICS in one form or another, including membership in the association, has reached 34, and the association's summit in Kazan will be the largest foreign policy event ever held in Russia.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan will take part in the BRICS summit, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov said earlier.
"We have expressed interest in BRICS... You make a declaration of intent. After this declaration, if you look at the current BRICS mechanism, they invite you to become either a partner country or a member country, and then you make a decision... We see that there is great interest from countries to join [BRICS], we are closely monitoring this, we have contacts with them, we are also looking at what the next growth strategy will be... In conditions when economic partnerships are expanding, interest in BRICS is growing," Fidan said in an interview with Turkish TV channel HaberGlobal.
The BRICS summit with the participation of heads of state will be held in the Russian city of Kazan on October 22-24.
