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.

U.S. President Donald Trump warned early Monday that countries that support of BRICS nations -- Brazil, Russia, India and China -- would be slapped with an additional 10% tariff when across-the-board

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.
