Azerbaijan wants to become a full-fledged member of BRICS, Chairman of the country's Milli Majlis (Parliament) Sahiba Gafarova said, speaking at the plenary session of the 10th BRICS Parliamentary Forum, TASS reports.
Gafarova spoke in favour of sincere dialogue within the framework of international parliamentary platforms to avoid double standards.
"Parliaments should promote co-operation, build bridges, fight confrontation. We should promote sincere dialogue so as not to become a platform for double standards, as it happens, for example, in the European Parliament," she said.
