#TrumpTariffs
U.S. President Donald Trump stated on Sunday that countries supporting the "anti-American policy" of BRICS will face an additional 10% tariff.
Trump wrote this in a post on the Truth Social platform, as reported by "European Truth".
His comment came after BRICS members criticized his tariff policy and the proposed reforms of the International Monetary Fund.
"Any country that joins the anti-American policy of BRICS will be subject to an additional 10% tariff. There will be no exceptions to this policy. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" – Trump wrote.
Trump has long criticized BRICS – an alliance created to strengthen the positions of member countries on the international stage and to counter the U.S. and Western Europe.
In December 2024, Trump already threatened to impose tariffs on BRICS countries, stating that "we are going to impose at least a 100% tariff on the business they conduct with the United States."
