Trump Warns BRICS of 100% Tariffs Over Dollar Undermining
Donald Trump has reiterated his threat to impose 100% tariffs on BRICS nations if they attempt to create or back an alternative reserve currency that undermines the US dollar.
Donald Trump has renewed a warning to BRICS member countries, stating they could face 100% tariffs if they pursue policies that weaken the US dollar. The former US president specifically cited efforts to create or support an alternative reserve currency as a trigger for such trade measures.
