US President Donald Trump has warned that his Administration will impose an additional ten per cent tariff on countries aligning themselves with what he termed as anti-American policies of the BRICS.  In a social media post, he said there will be no exceptions to this policy. ​Trump’s remarks came after the BRICS, a grouping of Brazil, China, South Africa and India, condemned the increase in tariffs​ by the US. In its meeting in Brazil,  the grouping also condemned​ the recent US and Israeli attacks on Iran.

Meanwhile,  Trump​ has announced that US tariff letters and deals with various countries from around the ​world will be delivered starting today. ​The Trump administration’s 90-day pause on higher duties is set to expire on Wednesday.
