BRICS Leaders Criticize Trump Tariffs and Condemn Strikes on Iran
During a summit, BRICS nations expressed concerns over US President Trump's import tariffs and denounced recent strikes on Iran by Israel and the US. The group, representing half the world's population, warned that unilateral tariffs could harm the global economy.
BRICS leaders at a summit on Sunday (Jul 6) criticized US President Donald Trump's import tariffs and recent Israeli-US strikes on Iran. The 11 emerging nations, including Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, represent about half the world's population and 40% of global economic output. The bloc expressed concerns about unilateral tariff measures, stating that they could harm the global economy. They also condemned military strikes on Iran carried out by Israel and the US.
In April, Trump threatened punitive duties on allies and rivals, later offering a reprieve. He has now warned of unilateral levies on partners if deals are not reached by Aug 1. The summit declaration did not directly criticize the US or its president by name.
