Despite Trump: BRICS defies tariffs – 20 countries want to join!

A jump into the deep end: Despite Donald Trump's violent threats of a 100% tariff, interest in the BRICS bloc remains unbroken. As many as 20 nations are scrambling to become members of the economic giant, despite Trump's harsh criticism and clear warnings to the bloc. The future US president is trying to put a stop to the bloc's growth, but more and more countries appear to be interested in joining.

A bang in international politics - the BRICS countries have expanded continuously in recent years and have shown the international economic stage that they are more than just a short-lived trend. At their most recent summit, they introduced a new partner nation status and have already upgraded nine countries. A long list of interested countries - including Bangladesh, Chile and Sri Lanka - are ready to join forces with BRICS, reports watcher.guru. The message is loud and clear: the bloc will not be intimidated and will continue undeterred with its single-minded agenda toward de-dollarization.

It remains to be seen whether Trump will play in the sandbox with his punishments, because the attack on the dollar will continue unstoppably. The connection to other interested parties from all over the world is being kept hot, as Russian presidential advisor Yury Ushakov emphasizes. The BRICS bloc is showing a clear edge and is focusing on expansion.
