He may have spent his entire adult life in diplomacy, but doctorate in nuclear physics Subrahmanyam Jaishankar’s face betrays both fusion and fission of his moods.

Take a look at these images captured by Reuters Photographer Nic Bothma from Capetown on Thursday, June 1, 2023, where the BRICS foreign ministers gathered, and you’ll see what we mean.

Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang stayed away from Capetown, sending Vice Foreign Minister Ma Zhaoxu in his place. Brazil’s Foreign Minister Mauro Vieira was there as was Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, whom Jaishankar met again within a month (they had met in Goa at the SCO foreign ministers’ summit).
