According to Trump, "the idea that BRICS countries are trying to move away from the dollar," while the U.S. "stands by and watches," is off the table.
"We will demand that these seemingly hostile countries commit to not creating a new BRICS currency or supporting any other currency to replace the powerful U.S. dollar. Otherwise, they will face 100% tariffs and have to say goodbye to the opportunity to sell their goods in the wonderful American market. They can find another nation of suckers," wrote the U.S. president.
Trump added that "there is no chance that BRICS will replace the U.S. dollar in international trade or anywhere else."
"Any country that attempts to replace the American dollar in international trade should say 'hello' to tariffs and 'goodbye, America,'" noted the U.S. president.
