On April 30, 2025 local time, Member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Director of the Office of the Central Commission for Foreign Affairs Wang Yi attended the 15th Meeting of BRICS National Security Advisers and High Representatives on National Security in Brasilia. The meeting reviewed the work of the BRICS Counter-Terrorism Working Group and Working Group on Security in the Use of ICTs.

Wang Yi said that terrorism is the common enemy of humanity. The field of counter-terrorism is currently facing new challenges, as international terrorist forces are colluding amid chaos, leading to frequent major terrorist attacks, while emerging technologies add complexity to the global counter-terrorism struggle. BRICS countries should join hands to combat all forms of terrorism, oppose the politicization and instrumentalization of counter-terrorism issues, and reject "double standards" in combating terrorism. BRICS countries should support the United Nations in playing a central role and promote the implementation of the United Nations Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy. Efforts should be made to address both the symptoms and root causes, strengthen counter-terrorism capacity building, and fundamentally eradicate the breeding grounds of terrorism. China fully supports joint discussions on measures to address current prominent issues and emerging risks, maintaining zero tolerance for terrorism.

Wang Yi expressed that currently, the risks of politicization, militarization and fragmentation in cyberspace are intensifying. Large-scale, prolonged and systematic cyberattacks occur from time to time, which not only endanger global digital development and cooperation, but also threaten international peace and security. In the face of new situations and challenges, BRICS countries should enhance coordination and cooperation, maintain order in cyberspace, promote the formulation of universal global rules on issues of concern to all parties such as data security and supply chain security, and build a just and equitable global cyberspace governance system. BRICS countries should give play to the role of the BRICS Roadmap of Practical Cooperation on Ensuring Security in the Use of ICTs and promote high-quality development of Greater BRICS cooperation on cybersecurity.

Wang Yi stated that artificial intelligence (AI) should be an international public instrument that serves the well-being of humanity, rather than a political tool for seeking geopolitical self-interest. Using so-called security risk prevention as a pretext to build "small yards with high fences", create divisions, and exclude some countries from the progress of AI technolog, will only lead to new risks and even confrontations. Noting the Global AI Governance Initiative proposed by China and the AI Capacity-Building Action Plan for Good and for All announced by China, Wang Yi expressed China's willingness to work with BRICS countries to promote the implementation of the initiative and action plan, deepen and expand cooperation on AI, and jointly develop AI that is good for the people, safe and controllable, and universally beneficial and inclusive.
