President Donald Trump threatened to add a 10% tariff rate on BRICS-aligned countries. The term first applied to 4 countries but the group expanded.

Trump said the U.S. will impose an additional 10% tariff on any countries aligning themselves with the "Anti-American policies" of the BRICS group of developing nations, whose leaders kicked off a summit in Brazil.

The BRICS bloc is made up of 11 nations, with Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa making up the core group. The bloc has drawn Trump's ire before.
