“While issuing a warning to countries going in for de-dollarization or a BRICS currency — via a social media post on January 30, 2025, US President Donald Trump said: ‘They can go find another sucker Nation. There is no chance that BRICS will replace the US Dollar in International Trade, or anywhere else, and any Country that tries should say hello to Tariffs, and goodbye to America!’ … This is not the first time that Donald Trump has issued such a stern warning to countries – especially BRICS member states — trading in local currencies. … Action against countries trading in local currencies will not be easy and individuals within his team may advise him against the same. Washington also needs to understand, that several countries have opted for trade in local currencies, due to the imposition of sanctions on Russia and not with the intention of weakening the US dollar.” (02/03/25)
