The US has imposed a 10 percent tariff on BRICS

A new tension has arisen in the relations between the USA and Russia. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

US President Donald Trump warned about the imposition of an additional 10 percent tariff on BRICS countries. He announced this decision on the Truth Social platform, emphasizing that there would be no exceptions.

White House Press Secretary Karolyn Levitt also assessed BRICS as a major geopolitical obstacle acting against US interests. According to her, America will take all necessary measures to protect its interests.

Trump's firm position was once again evident at the BRICS summit held in Brazil. He expressed concerns about the abandonment of the dollar in international trade and the potential for BRICS to become an economic center.

Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev assessed the US policy against BRICS as being on the right track. The influence of the BRICS+ bloc is increasing every year.

Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Iran, the UAE, Ethiopia, and Indonesia are members of this organization. Uzbekistan has a partner-state status.

New members are expected to join and economic projects are anticipated to develop by the end of the year. The conflict between Trump and Medvedev continues.

In the latest meeting at the White House, Trump announced that he had resumed arms deliveries to Ukraine and made critical remarks about Russian President Vladimir Putin. Medvedev stated that such statements should not be taken seriously.

In June, the two leaders had intense debates on nuclear weapons and the Iran issue. The Zamin.uz website continues to deliver important news about political events between the USA and Russia, international sanctions, and geopolitical blocs to its readers promptly and fairly.
