The correct answer is option 3: Brazil. The BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) is an association of five major emerging economies. Each year, one of the member countries hosts the annual BRICS summit. In 2019, it was Brazil`s turn to host the summit, making option 3 the correct answer.
Option 1: China is incorrect because China hosted the BRICS summit in 2017.
Option 2: Russia is incorrect because Russia hosted the BRICS summit in 2015.
Option 4: India is incorrect because India hosted the BRICS summit in 2016.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 3: Brazil. It is important to note the rotation system followed by the BRICS countries in hosting the summit, as this determines which country will host the event each year.
