Trump mentions BRICS while explaining why he imposed 25% tariffs on India
On announcing 25% tariffs on India, US President Donald Trump said it's partially due to trade and partially due to BRICS. "BRICS...[is] anti-US...It is an attack on the dollar, and we aren't going to let anybody attack the dollar," he said. He added that India sells a lot of items, but the US doesn't buy them because of high tariffs.
