Brasilia – Saba:

Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva condemned on Tuesday US President Donald Trump's threats to impose tariffs on BRICS member states or those that express support for the group's policies.

During a joint press conference with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, broadcast by the Brazilian government on social media, the Brazilian president said, "We do not accept any criticism directed at the BRICS summit, and we completely reject what the President of the United States hinted yesterday about the possibility of imposing tariffs on the bloc."

The Brazilian president emphasized that BRICS brings together countries that seek peace, development, and the reduction of inequalities, adding, "We do not want wars, and we do not want confrontation. We want our countries to be able to achieve development and progress."

Earlier, US President Donald Trump announced the imposition of an additional 10 percent trade tariff on countries that express support for BRICS policies, deeming them anti-US.
