Palestine has applied for full membership in BRICS but has yet to receive a response and will continue participating as a guest for now, Palestinian Ambassador to Russia Abdel-Hafiz Nofal said on Friday. Speaking to the Russian news agency RIA, Nofal confirmed that Palestinian authorities have already submitted a formal application. “But as you know, Palestine has certain conditions. I believe that until these conditions allow us to become a full member, Palestine will participate in the union as a guest. So far, we haven’t received any answer,” he said.
