Trump vs BRICS: POTUS is often at odds with the Global South bloc

President Trump threatens BRICS nations with additional tariffs for aligning with "anti-American" policies, escalating trade tensions. BRICS leaders condemn Trump's actions as a threat to global economic stability and a violation of WTO rules. The conflict extends beyond trade, encompassing currency alternatives and diplomatic disengagement, potentially fracturing global supply chains and straining relationships with nations like India.
