Iran Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on Thursday (May 14, 2026) arrived in India to attend the BRICS Foreign Ministers’ meeting in New Delhi.

Mr. Araghchi indicated that UAE will be “held to account” for colluding with Israel, after Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu office disclosed secret visit to Abu Dhabi during war.

In a X post, Mr. Araghchi said “Netanyahu has now publicly revealed what Iran’s security services long ago conveyed to our leadership. Enmity with the Great People of Iran is a foolish gamble. Collusion with Israel in doing so: unforgivable. Those colluding with Israel to sow division will be held to account.”

Mr. Araghchi will be coming face to face with UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs on Thursday (May 14, 2026) at BRICS Foreign Ministers summit.

On May 13, 2026, Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Kzen Gharibabadi said “Iran has provided “free of charge services” to international shipping in the Strait of Hormuz for decades but is now working on a “protocol” to include a financial component covering costs it incurs to make navigation safe in the Persian Gulf region.”

Speaking to a select group of journalists at the Embassy of Iran, Mr. Gharibabadi, who is here for the BRICS Foreign Ministers’ meeting, avoided naming the UAE directly and said “a neighbouring country that is also a member of the BRICS” is thwarting a joint statement at the meeting by trying to introduce language that seeks to condemn Iran’s military strategy against U.S. and Israeli attacks.
