Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev exchanged brief words during a plenary session at the BRICS summit in Kazan.

Russia, which is chairing the summit, emphasised the theme of "strengthening multilateralism for equitable global development". Despite tense relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan, no further details of their exchanges were given. The summit ends on 24 October.
