With forums such as the #G7 & #G20 groups of major economies hamstrung by divisions & the disruptive "America First" approach of #Trump, #BRICS is presenting itself as a haven for multilateral diplomacy amid violent conflicts & #trade wars.In a joint statement from the opening of the BRICS summit in Rio de Janeiro released on Sunday afternoon, the group warned the rise in #tariffs threatened global trade, continuing its veiled criticism of Trump's tariff policies.#Economy #Geopolitics

@Nonilex So, please let me process this: he's telling the rest of the world that he's willing to strain more the economy of the USA if the rest of the world collaborate with the emerging economic bloc that includes the main producer of rare minerals and the manufacturing centre of the world at the moment?

Hours later, #Trump warned he would punish countries seeking to join with the grouping."Any Country aligning themselves with the Anti-American policies of BRICS, will be charged an ADDITIONAL 10% Tariff. There will be no exceptions to this policy. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" Trump posted.Trump did not clarify or expand on the "Anti-American policies" reference in his post.#RevengePolitics #MafiaState #Economy #Geopolitics #BRICS #Brazil #Russia #China #India #SouthAfrica

@Nonilex I think, observing a river, that the water will find its way downward. When confronted with obstacles, it finds a different path.

The #Trump admin is seeking to finalize dozens of #trade deals with a wide range of countries before his July 9 deadline for the imposition of significant "retaliatory #tariffs".The original #BRICS group gathered leaders from #Brazil, #Russia, #India & #China…. The bloc later added #SouthAfrica & last year included #Egypt, #Ethiopia, #Indonesia, #Iran, & the #UAE as members.#RevengePolitics #MafiaState #Economy #Geopolitics #BRICS #Brazil #Russia #China #India #SouthAfrica

In opening remarks to the summit, #Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva drew a parallel w/the #ColdWar's #NonAlignedMovement, a group of developing nations that resisted joining either side of a polarized global order."#BRICS is the heir to the Non-Aligned Movement," Lula told leaders. "With multilateralism under attack, our autonomy is in check once again."BRICS nations represent >½ the world's population & 40% of its economic output, Lula noted…, warning of rising protectionism.

@Nonilex I sincerely hope they flip him off and sign. He uses threats and lies to keep people from interfering in the heritage foundation plans.They should neuter him quickly and decisively for the sake of the rest of the world. Treat the US like you would treat any other antagonistic country.

@Nonilex All those countries should join #BRICS and that would sort out Trump and his endless blackmailing thuggery and intimidation.

@Nonilex And if BRICS' leaders even mouths words to allay Rumps "concerns", Rump will wait 2 months of so and make the #tariff 50%.
