Trump's bold ultimatum to BRICS nations shakes up global money system

In a direct-hit message to BRICS nations‚ Donald Trump made his position crystal-clear: dont mess with the US dollar. His Truth Social post (which came out on nov-30) shows how serious he is about keeping Americas money power

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% Tariffs

Trump stated on Truth Social

The president-elect laid out a no-nonsense approach — any BRICS member trying to create an alternative currency would face super-high trade barriers and lose access to US markets (which Trump calls the wonderful US Economy)

His follow-up message was just as firm: international trade partnerships could change fast for countries that dont play by these rules. Trump suggested that nations looking to challenge the dollar should “wave goodbye to America“ and find another “sucker“ to do business with; this shows his take-it-or-leave-it style of deal-making

The whole thing puts BRICS nations in a tough spot — they must choose between their currency plans and keeping good trade relations with America. Its worth noting that these countries (Brazil Russia India China and South Africa) make up a big chunk of world trade‚ but Trump seems ready to push back hard against any moves that might weaken US dollars place in global markets
