President-elect Donald Trump is advancing to fracture and dismantle the BRICS alliance, said a political analyst from Moscow, Boris Mezhuyev. The analyst explained that the 47th President of the United States is determined to take on countries that threaten to cut ties with the US dollar. BRICS is the first in line to receive the ire of Trump after he takes oath on January 20, 2025.

The BRICS alliance vowed to spread the de-dollarization agenda worldwide and Trump recently responded to the initiative. The President-elect vowed to put a 100% tariff on all goods entering the US from countries that want to end reliance on the US dollar. The move will force the bloc to use the greenback for trade and not local currencies for cross-border transactions.

Mezhuyev stressed that Trump will aim to dismantle the multipolar world order to keep the US supremacy intact. “He will strive to fracture BRICS, to dismantle the emerging multipolar world order. He will do so with greater determination and more effectively than the previous administration,” he said to Tass.

The analyst said that Trump’s enemies will grow beyond China and Russia and will be BRICS as a whole. “I think that Trump’s primary adversary will be neither Russia nor China, but BRICS itself. His policies will look to bolster American hegemony in key areas,” he said.
The political analyst said that Trump will look to pit India, China, and Russia against each other to weaken BRICS. “Attempts to replace the presidents of Brazil and Venezuela, and pit India, Russia, and China against each other are coming. He will seek to fragment the world majority, to upset the emerging unity. This non-Western world would be taken down. This is what Trump’s strategy will look like. Everything else is a matter of tactics,” he summed it up.
