BRICS Leaders to Discuss Trump's Tariffs at Virtual Meet

BRICS Leaders to Discuss Trump's Tariffs at Virtual Meet

The leaders of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa (BRICS) will have a video call next Monday.

Brazil's president, Lula, will host the meeting.

They plan to talk about Donald Trump's trade policies and tariffs that the US has imposed on these countries.

The meeting aims to find ways to deal with these tariffs and promote cooperation among the BRICS nations, as well as discuss a new payment system.

The timing coincides with a trial in Brazil that could invite further US pressure.

Trump has also cautioned against reducing the use of the US dollar.
