Trump named Spain a member of BRICS
US President Donald Trump mistakenly called Spain a member of BRICS and said that he would introduce 100% tariffs against the countries of the association. This is how he answered a journalist’s question during the ceremony of signing his first decrees.
The journalist asked Trump what measures should be expected by NATO countries with too little defense spending. He cited France and Spain as examples. Trump responded by saying that Spain's defense spending is "very low." He then mistakenly called the country a member of BRICS, an interstate association of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa.

“This is a BRICS country? Yes, Spain is a BRICS country. Do you know what a BRICS country is? Now you’ll find out,” Trump said. The US President added that he does not consider BRICS a threat to the US, but is still going to introduce 100% tariffs against the countries of the association. The journalist clarified whether Spain risks receiving them. Trump responded in the affirmative.
Those present insisted that the American president explain why he called the European Union country a member of BRICS. Trump said BRICS is a group of "six or seven countries" that are trying to "play against the United States." “But if they succeed, they will not be happy,” he said.
On the first day of his presidency, Donald Trump signed a number of decrees, including the declaration of a state of emergency on the US border with Mexico. He also ordered the inclusion of Mexican drug cartels on the list of terrorist organizations.

When signing the order, Trump told reporters that he did not rule out the possibility of using military force against Mexican criminal groups. According to him, such measures are due to the fact that drug cartels annually claim the lives of hundreds of thousands of Americans.
In addition, Trump suspended international aid from the United States for 90 days. He clarified that the provision of assistance will be resumed only after a review, which should confirm its compliance with the interests of the new administration.
