Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov commented on Thursday regarding threats issued by U.S. President Donald Trump to BRICS, an organization comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates.
Trump claimed the group has "anti-American policies" and said he will impose tariffs on it and its allies, with Peskov replying that BRICS "does not respond to threats" and is not aligned against any country, News.Az reports citing foreign media.

Perhaps:
Brazil China Settlement Bank
a joint partnership of the Brazilian and Chinese central banks
We match up tendered trade deal financial settlements every US business day within the specific settlement parameters set by our customers prior to midnight Pacific Standard Time.
Available funds must be on account at least five hours prior.
Not every trade deal will settle every day as exchange rates desired by customers may not be available in sufficient financial quantity.
Proposed settlements will only be made within the customer timeframe, which may not exceed five business days, with older trades being settled first.
This would work like buying and selling stocks.
How Brazil and China do business with each other is not the proper concern of the US President.
The US government should manage its foreign trade and its currency in a proper manner compatible with the interests of its citizens under applicable law.
Ditto Brazil & China.
Trump has no clue as to what Brics is about. He treats Brics as if it were a hostile military alliance.

You’re funny.
Saw your about page
Thank you for your service.
Ever hear of Don Shipley ?
Worked for generals eh ,?
You’re not a brown noser are you ,?
I mean besides
for the DOS ,
Vlad is showing his fangs.
So far, it’s just five nations joined by tyrannical Brazil and racist South Africa. But it’s a definite effort to turn off the dollar’s influence as default currency. I don’t want to over-inflate their possibility of success, but anywhere China is involved I watch.
“I don’t want to over-inflate their possibility of success”
This BRICS bunch is very dangerous.

“This BRICS bunch is very dangerous.” Yeah. I said that. And I stand by it.
It’s a threat to the agreements basically in existence since Bretton Woods.
They are indeed a threat to the US monetary system. How big, time will tell. And you apparently want to argue. Now get lost, jerk.
“And you apparently want to argue. “
I did not argue. Just reposted YOUR words with no comment.
I know Don Shipley and his great work ferreting out the BUDS impersonators.
Your inference is funny. That GO duty was a curse. They ride a good horse into the ground. IG Duty is also GO Staff.
Nearly six years in direct support of GOs from 4, 3, 2-star offices. Four plus years in the IG.
Is working for the Dept of State Brown Nosing? Damn hard to get into the foreign service by competitive means.
Trump has no idea about Brics. Period. The man needs a time out.
BRICS has been around since 2006. I find it interesting so many are unaware of its members, partners, and goals.
President Trump vowed punitive tariffs on its partners, and members weeks ago (after the BRICS Summit).
Following Trump’s pronouncement, President Lula stated, “We don’t need an Emperor.”
Brazil is our 3rd largest beef importer, home to 24 firearms manufacturers (Taurus comes to mind), and many steel, and metal imports (Tramontino cutlery and cookware comes to mind).
Your inference is funny. That GO duty was a curse.

Apart from my disagreement with regards to trump..

Crappy duty is still duty.

Crappy
That last crappy was a crappy job of proofreading on my part.
Thank you for your patient service
You really need to learn how to spell.
