Hopefully Trump figures it out. Especially since he threatened Spain with 100% tariffs for being a BRICS member... Which they are not. Can't let facts get in the way of a good tariff threat.
“They’re a BRICS nation, Spain. You know what a BRICS nation is? You’ll figure it out. And if the BRICS nations want to do that, that’s okay, but we’re going to put at least a 100% tariff on the business they do with the United States. You know what the BRICS is, right? You guys know. You know what I’m saying.” – Trump, last night to reporters in the Oval Office.
BRICS is the economic union formed in 2009 by Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran, and the UAE became members last year.
Spain is part of the European Union, not BRICS.
