India is under pressure to steer the Brics group toward taking a firmer stand on the Iran conflict. The group has failed to take a position on the war, with multiple members on different sides. Iran has asked India to support its bid to condemn the US and Israeli military campaign. The UAE and Saudi Arabia are unlikely to agree, while China and Russia may extend tacit support to Iran. India shares close ties with both the US and Israel, and also has historical links with Iran. The country is heavily reliant on oil and gas flows through the Strait of Hormuz, which has been virtually shut since the war began.
