Donald Trump Warns Of 100% Tariffs On BRICS & India: Here's What US President Said After Inauguration
“As a BRICS nation ... they'll have a 100 per cent tariff if they so much as even think about doing what they thought, and therefore they will give it up immediately,” Trump was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.

He was referring to the effort to reduce the use of the dollar in global trade.
BRICS, formed in 2009, is the only major international group of which the United States is not a part.
Trump, however, added that his statement should not be seen as a threat but rather as a clear stance on the issue.
The US President also referenced comments made by former US President Joe Biden, suggesting that Biden had indicated the US was in a vulnerable position on this matter, to which Trump disagreed, asserting that the US has the leverage over the BRICS nations and that they would not be able to proceed with their plans.
“If the BRICS nations want to do that, that's OK, but we're going to put at least a 100 per cent tariff on the business they do with the United States. It's not even a threat. In fact, since I made that statement, Biden said, they have us over a barrel. I said, No, we have them over a barrel. And there's no way they're going to be able to do that,” Trump said.
