US President-elect Trump threatens BRICS nations with 100 per cent tariffs over plans to replace dollar

New Indian Express  

NEW DELHI: U.S. President elect Donald Trump on Sunday said that BRICS countries trying to move away from dollar will face 100 per cent tariffs. We require a commitment from these countries that they will neither create a new BRICS Currency, nor back any other currency to replace the mighty U.S. Dollar or, they will face 100 per cent tariffs and should expect to say goodbye to selling into the wonderful U.S. Economy,” said Trump. External Affairs Minister, Dr S Jaishankar, had earlier said that there was no idea of a BRICS currency. "From time to time, people have raised that there should be a Brics currency but remember for countries to have a common currency, you need an enormous alignment of the very fundamentals of fiscal policies, the monetary policies, economical policies or even have to check the political policies."
