China FIRES BACK at U.S. Over Trump's Tariff Penalty on BRICS Allies, Warns Against Tariff War 2.0

The geopolitical stage is set for a major confrontation as the BRICS alliance prepares for its 2025 summit in Brazil.

The bloc, which will include ten member nations, is openly challenging the long-standing economic hegemony of the United States.

With members like China, Russia, and Brazil leading the charge, BRICS now represents a formidable force, accounting for 45% of the global population and 35% of the world's GDP.

The group's primary objective is to reduce its dependency on the U.S. dollar by promoting trade in local currencies and developing alternative financial systems. The tension has escalated dramatically following a direct threat from former U.S. President Donald Trump.

He warned that any nation aligning with BRICS' anti-dollar policies would face severe consequences, including a blanket 10% tariff with "no exceptions." This aggressive stance is a clear signal that the U.S. views the rise of BRICS as a direct threat to its ability to impose sanctions and control global financial networks like SWIFT.

In response to the mounting criticism and Trump's threats, China's Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Mao Ning, has publicly pushed back.

While rejecting claims that BRICS is an "anti-American" coalition, she firmly stated that the mechanism is not targeted at any single country.

However, she also reiterated China's long-standing opposition to "tariff wars and trade wars," sending a clear message to Washington.

This high-stakes diplomatic battle between the established G7 powers and the rising BRICS alliance could reshape the future of the global economy.

Lula BLASTS Trump, Rejects “Humiliation” Of Tariff Talks As U.S Slaps 50% Duties On Brazil Goods [Video]

Lula BLASTS Trump, Rejects “Humiliation” Of Tariff Talks As U.S Slaps 50% Duties On Brazil Goods

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has drawn a firm line in the sand after the United States imposed hefty 50% tariffs on Brazilian exports. In a striking interview with Reuters, Lula declared he won’t initiate talks with President Trump that might “humiliate” his nation—saying he’ll only engage if he senses genuine willingness to negotiate. Brazil isn't retaliating with reciprocal tariffs but is pursuing WTO consultations and prepping domestic support for affected industries. Lula also unveils plans to mobilize BRICS partners like India and China for a coordinated response. Firmly asserting Brazil’s economic sovereignty, he criticized Trump’s interference in a sovereign country’s legal affairs, particularly related to the prosecution of former president Jair Bolsonaro. Emphasizing mutual respect in diplomacy, Lula called for dignified engagement-pointing to Trump’s public humiliations of other world leaders as unacceptable conduct. He’s offering negotiation-but on his terms only. #Lula #Trump #Brazil #TradeWar #Tariffs #WTO #BRICS #USBrazilRelations #Sovereignty #Diplomacy #NoHumiliation #50PercentTariff #ReutersInterview #EconomicSovereignty #TradeDiplomacy #GlobalTrade #LatinAmerica #StrategicMinerals #RespectInDiplomacy #TradeCrisis ~HT.318~ED.346~

India's FIERY Response To Trump's Warning | India Stands Firm On Russian Oil

India has doubled down on its decision to continue purchasing discounted Russian crude oil despite U.S. President Donald Trump's remarks suggesting New Delhi may halt such imports. Indian state-owned refiners reaffirmed that sourcing oil from Russia remains a strategic, price-driven choice essential for the country’s energy security, given its 85% crude import dependence. Officials emphasized that Russian oil is not under international sanctions and purchases comply with the G7/EU price cap mechanism, ensuring global markets remain liquid and prices stable. Sources argue that India's imports prevented oil prices from soaring above the March 2022 peak of $137 a barrel amid OPEC+ cuts. Meanwhile, reports of suspended purchases were dismissed, with officials highlighting the EU’s own high intake of Russian LNG. India insists its decisions are guided by national interest while contributing positively to global energy stability, even as Washington hints at possible penalties. #IndiaOilImports #RussianOil #TrumpTariffs #EnergySecurity #GlobalOilPrices #RussianCrude #OilTradeTensions #IndiaEnergyPolicy #USIndiaRelations #BrentCrude #OPECPlusCuts #PriceCapMechanism #RussianLNG #OilMarketStability #IndiaDefiesTrump #OilSupplyCrisis #GlobalEnergyCrisis #IndianRefiners #USRussiaTensions #OilImportsNews ~HT.410~GR.125~ED.103~

Trump Vs BRICS: Trump Declares Economic WAR On BRICS Allies, Warns 10% Tariffs On ‘Anti-U.S Bloc’ [Video]

Trump Vs BRICS: Trump Declares Economic WAR On BRICS Allies, Warns 10% Tariffs On ‘Anti-U.S Bloc’

Trump Vs BRICS: In a move set to rattle global markets, former President Donald Trump has issued a severe warning to the BRICS nations and their allies. He threatens to impose a blanket 10% tariff on any country adopting what he terms "anti-American" policies backed by the bloc. This declaration comes after the 2025 BRICS Summit in Brazil, where the member nations, now numbering ten, issued a joint condemnation of recent US-Israel strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, calling them "illegal." The BRICS bloc, now representing 45% of the global population and 35% of the world's GDP, has become a significant geopolitical force. In their summit, they also criticized the West's "double standards" on global terror, specifically citing the Pahalgam attack in Kashmir as an example. This direct reference brings the conflict to India's doorstep. Trump claims the tariff letters for 12 countries are already "signed and ready," though sources suggest this could be a strategic bluff to test the bloc's unity. This escalating tension is rooted in BRICS's core mission: to reduce dependence on the U.S. dollar. With their internal trade hitting $1 trillion in 2025 through local currency systems, the bloc, heavily influenced by China and Russia, is seen as a direct challenge to America's sanctions power and its dominance via institutions like the IMF and G7. For Trump, the bloc's growing anti-West stance and expanding economic influence represents a primary threat to American global leadership, setting the stage for a potential economic war. #BRICS #DonaldTrump #USTariff #BreakingNews #WorldNews #Geopolitics #TradeWar #OneindiaNews #USDollar #Dedollarization Also Read Trump Calls Musk’s America Party Plan ‘Ridiculous’ And ‘Unworkable’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-calls-musk-s-america-party-plan-ridiculous-and-unworkable-7793443.html?ref=DMDesc There Should Be No Hesitation In Imposing Sanctions Against Terrorists: PM Modi At BRICS :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/there-should-be-no-hesitation-in-imposing-sanctions-against-terrorists-pm-modi-at-brics-7793415.html?ref=DMDesc America Will Be Richer, Safer, and Prouder: Trump As Big, Beautiful Bill Passes Congress :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-s-big-beautiful-bill-passes-congress-in-big-win-for-us-president-011-7790919.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.103~HT.408~GR.125~

Kremlin’s Most SHOCKING Move Yet? Backs France’s Recognition of Palestine |Defies Trump & Netanyahu [Video]

Kremlin’s Most SHOCKING Move Yet? Backs France’s Recognition of Palestine |Defies Trump & Netanyahu

In a dramatic global twist, Russia has declared full support for Palestinian statehood, with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov reaffirming Moscow's long-standing commitment to a two-state solution. The statement comes on the heels of French President Emmanuel Macron’s bombshell announcement that France will recognize Palestine at the upcoming UN General Assembly in September — making it the first major Western power to do so. Russia, which adopted Palestine’s 1988 declaration of independence under the USSR, insists that peace in the Middle East hinges on UN Security Council resolutions and the establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state. Macron’s decision has enraged Israel and the U.S., with Netanyahu calling it a “reward for terror” and Secretary of State Marco Rubio labeling it “reckless.” Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia and Spain have praised the move, calling it “historic.” Over 59,000 Palestinians have died in the ongoing Gaza war, intensifying the global demand for Palestinian recognition. #Russia #Palestine #Israel #France #Macron #UN #TwoStateSolution #MiddleEastConflict #Kremlin #PalestinianStatehood #GazaWar #Netanyahu #MarcoRubio #USIsraelTensions #UNRecognition #WorldNews #GlobalDiplomacy #EastJerusalem #WestBank #PalestineRecognition
