-snip- 10 new countries that joined BRICS as partners: Belarus, Bolivia, Kazakhstan, Nigeria, Malaysia, Thailand, Cuba, Vietnam, Uganda, and Uzbekistan.

Our country, Indonesia, is one of them, becoming a full member of BRICS. We appreciate this because we have a non-aligned policy, allowing us to flexibly engage in profitable opportunities for economic collaboration.

Trump is furious and is targeting 32% tariffs on our country starting next August.

The more arrogant Trump is, the faster the world will abandon him. This is a mistake that will have long-term consequences for the US economy.

Isn't Spain among these countries? I'm afraid that Trump will feel disappointed when he hears this news.
