US EditionTrump says BRICS-aligned countries to face additional 10% tariffs
UNITED STATES, JUL 9 – Insiders say the Trump administration's 90-day trade negotiation window is largely symbolic with limited authority, resulting in only two preliminary deals as the July 9 deadline nears.
- U.S. President Donald Trump announced on July 6 that countries supporting BRICS' anti-American policies will face an additional 10% tariff starting August 1.
- This tariff threat follows months of escalating reciprocal tariffs initiated earlier this year alongside the temporary suspension of retaliatory EU tariffs on $21 billion worth of U.S. products until July 14.
- BRICS leaders held a summit in Rio de Janeiro expressing serious concerns about unilateral tariffs and called for renewed commitment to the WTO's multilateral trade framework.
- Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning emphasized on July 7 that BRICS stands against trade and tariff conflicts, does not single out any nation, and that imposing tariffs without justification is detrimental to all parties involved.
- The intensified tariff measures risk disrupting global supply chains and trade, with EU officials warning up to 50,000 jobs could be at risk amid ongoing talks on easing tariffs on key sectors like cars and steel.
