WASHINGTON (AN) — U.S. President Donald Trump said he might increase U.S. tariffs on countries that favor BRICS, after the bloc of emerging markets criticized the "indiscriminate rising of tariffs and non-tariff measures, or protectionism under the guise of environmental objectives."
The U.S. president said on social media on Monday that "any country aligning themselves with the anti-American policies of BRICS, will be charged an additional 10% tariff. There will be no exceptions to this policy." He did not provide more details or specify which policies he had in mind.
