As Donald Trump intensifies his tariff war on nations like India and Brazil, a BRICS Strategic Awakening is underway. The five-member blocāBrazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africaāis realigning its collective strength to challenge Washingtonās high-handedness. With renewed cooperation and resistance, this BRICS Strategic Awakening could reshape the global trade order. From bilateral pacts to bold diplomatic moves, the BRICS Strategic Awakening signals a global shift towards multipolarity.

In a major international development, former U.S. President Donald Trump has announced a sweeping 30% tariff on all goods imported from South Africa, set to begin on August 1. In a letter, Trump claimed South Africa's trade policies are "far from reciprocal," prompting this drastic measure. The White House has indicated that these tariffs could be adjusted based on the future of US-Pretoria relations.
Responding swiftly, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has sharply pushed back, labelling the tariff a "contested interpretation" of the current trade reality. In a statement from his office, Ramaphosa highlighted that South Africa's average tariff on imports is a modest 7.6%, and a staggering 77% of all U.S. goods enter the country completely duty-free. He has tasked a special team to urgently engage with U.S. officials on the matter.
High-stakes negotiations are already underway. U.S. and South African officials have met in Angola to discuss tariff relief and market access. South Africa's trade ministry is pushing to delay the deadline and negotiate a new framework, with sources indicating they are seeking to cap the duty rate at 10% as a potential compromise. The international community is watching closely as a Press Secretary Leavitt has hinted at a possible delay, leaving the future of US-South Africa trade hanging in the balance.

Tel Aviv witnessed powerful scenes as families of Israeli hostages and victims of the October 7 attack addressed a press conference, calling for urgent action to secure a Gaza truce deal and the safe return of captives. Their emotional plea came after nationwide protests demanding accountability and a stronger government response. Lishay Miran-Lavi, wife of hostage Omri Miran, declared, āThis day is just the beginning. We draw strength from the public's support and intend to escalate and intensify the struggle from here until all the hostages are home.ā Demonstrations across Israel highlighted growing frustration with leadership, as calls for early elections and nationwide strikes gather momentum. Families vowed to continue mobilizing public pressure until every hostage is released, intensifying one of Israelās most volatile domestic movements in years.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed striking deep inside Yemen, targeting a Houthi-controlled energy infrastructure site in the capital Sanaa. The long-range strike, conducted from nearly 2,000 kilometers away, was described as a direct response to repeated Houthi attacks on Israel, including missile and UAV launches aimed at Israeli territory. The IDF accused the Houthis of operating as an Iranian proxy, exploiting shipping lanes and global trade routes to conduct hostile operations. Military officials stressed that Israel will continue to act decisively against threats āwherever required,ā signaling further escalation if attacks persist. This marks one of the deepest IDF strikes in recent years, highlighting Israelās expanding reach against Iranian-backed groups beyond its immediate borders. The strike underscores growing regional tensions as Israel seeks to deter attacks from Yemen while maintaining pressure on Tehran and its allies.

In an exclusive conversation with OneIndia News, Vlada Galan ā Geopolitical Strategist; President & Chair, International Ukrainian Crisis Fund, says that Trump used India as a Pawn to pressure Putin into a Summit. Vlada however clears that the sanctions on India were nothing personal against India and only a pressure-tactic against Putin, which played a role to some extent to get the Alaska meeting in place.

During the live coverage of the historic TrumpāPutin meeting in Alaska, a heated debate broke out between Burzine Waghmar SOAS, University of London, and journalist Nagen Singh of OneIndia News. Waghmar argued that Russiaās economy is overheated and claimed Putin cannot sustain the Ukraine war beyond a year. He also questioned Indiaās obsession with Moscow and the romanticization of Indo-Russian ties. Countering him, Singh accused the West of hypocrisy and blamed the UK and U.S. for Indiaās deep-rooted closeness with Russia.
