The Multipolar Mediator : India, BRICS & Europe in a Fragmenting Global Order

The Multipolar Mediator is a strategic geopolitical intelligence brief that examines India’s unique role as a bridge between BRICS and Europe at a time when global governance is undergoing structural transformation. As BRICS expands its membership, ambition, and institutional footprint, India’s dual engagement strategy has become central to shaping how the Global South interacts with established Western power centres.

This report analyses how India leverages BRICS to amplify Global South priorities—such as development finance reform, institutional representation, and strategic autonomy—while simultaneously maintaining deep political, economic, and normative engagement with Europe. It maps evolving stakeholder interests, internal contradictions within BRICS, and Europe’s recalibrated approach toward an increasingly assertive Global South platform. Through scenario-based analysis, the brief outlines the risks and opportunities of India’s balancing act, including its potential to enhance BRICS effectiveness without triggering bloc confrontation.

Designed for policymakers, diplomats, analysts, and strategic investors, this digital product offers clarity on why India’s mediation role could define the future credibility of BRICS and the direction of multipolar governance.
