Trump's Tariff Threats on BRICS Currency Plans

U.S. President Donald Trump reiterated warnings of possible tariffs on BRICS nations if they establish a new currency. He asserted that the idea of undermining the dollar is now obsolete. BRICS, including Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, have discussed creating their own currency.
