Rio de Janeiro: President Donald Trump said the United States has imposed 10 % additional tax on any countries that alleviate itself with the “anti -American policies” of the BRICS group of developing countries, whose leaders launched a major summit in Brazil on Sunday.

Hamstring and the US president’s disturbing “US First” point of view through divisions through G7 and G20 KG20 groups, such as G7 and G20, are presenting themselves as a shelter for multilateral diplomacy during violent conflicts and trade wars.

Giving opening remarks to the BRICS Summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazilian President Louise Lola Da Silva attracted parallel to the unconstitutional movement of the Cold War, a group of developing countries that resist both sides of the polarized global setting.

Lola told the leaders, “The BRICS is the heir to the non -affiliated movement.” Under the attack, with multilateral, our sovereignty is once again in check. “

In a joint statement issued on Sunday afternoon, the group warned that the rise in prices threatened global trade, which has continued to criticize the group’s US tariff policies.

Hours later, Trump warned that he would punish countries wishing to join the grouping.

“With BRICS ‘anti -American policies, any country that alleviates yourself will receive 10 % additional tax. There will be no exception to this policy. Thank you for your attention on this matter!” Trump said in a post about the truth.

Trump did not clear or expand the reference to “anti -American policies” in his post.

The Trump administration is trying to finalize dozens of trade agreements with widespread countries before its deadline on July 9 to implement significant “revenge rates” on July 9.

The BRICS countries now represent 40 % of the world’s population and its economic production, Lola said on Saturday, giving remarks to business leaders, and warning of growing protection.

The original BRICS Group gathered leaders from Brazil, Russia, India and China at its first summit in 2009. The block later added South Africa and was included in Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates last year. This is the first summit of the leaders to include Indonesia.

More than 30 countries have expressed interest in participating in the BRICS, either as a full member or partner.

Increasing riot, complication

The expansion of BRICS has increased diplomatic weight in the gathering, which wants to talk for global developing countries, which requires reforms to global institutions like the UN Security Council and the International Monetary Fund.

“If the international governance does not reflect the new multi -faceted reality of the 21st century, it depends on the BRICS,” Lola said in her remarks.

BRICS urged them to take the lead over reforms, Lola reflected the G20 summit in the same place last November: “In a short time, the international scene has deteriorated to the point that some of the approved steps we approved will not be possible.”

While stealing some thunderstorms from this year’s summit, Chinese President Xi Jinping chose to send his premiere to his place. Russian President Vladimir Putin is participating online for arrest warrants from the International Criminal Court.

However, on Sunday and Monday, several heads of states were gathered at the Rio Museum of Modern Art, including Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and South African President Serial Ramfosa.

However, there are questions about the joint goals of the rapidly contradictory BRICS group, which include the emerging economies as well as regional rivals.

In a joint statement, leaders called attacks against Iran’s “civilian infrastructure and peaceful nuclear facilities a” violation of international law “.

The group expressed its support for Ethiopia and Iran to join the World Trade Organization, demanding immediate restoration of its ability to resolve trade disputes.

The joint statement of the leaders supported the group’s new development bank plans to pilot the BRICS multi -bureaucrats to reduce financial support costs and increase investment in member states, as was reported last week.

In a separate statement after a debate on artificial intelligence, leaders called for reservations against AI’s unauthorized use to avoid excessive data collection and allow mechanisms for fair payment.

Brazil, which also hosts the UN climate summit in November, has occupied both gatherings to highlight how developing countries are dealing with climate change, while Trump has criticized US climate measures.

China and the United Arab Emirates have indicated meetings with Brazilian Finance Minister Fernando Hadid in Rio that they are intended to invest in the proposed tropical forests, according to two sources, with information about talks about talks about financing forests worldwide.
