Idea of undermining US currency is dead — Trump

Trump warned again that BRICS nations could face tariffs from the US if they set up their own currency

WASHINGTON, February 15. /TASS/. US President Donald Trump believes that the idea of undermining the dollar is dead now, he told reporters at the White House.

Trump warned again that BRICS nations could face tariffs from the US if they set up their own currency.

On Thursday the US leader said that BRICS nations could face tariffs of at least 100% from the United States "if they want to play games with the dollar."

In January, Trump wrote on his Truth Social page that he would impose 100% customs duties on goods from BRICS member states should the alliance move away from the dollar.
