The BRICS alliance—comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—is weathering targeted US trade measures, including 50% tariffs on Brazilian goods and looming secondary sanctions against India. These actions underscore the bloc's growing role as a counterweight to Western financial dominance.

The group's resilience is being tested as it navigates both geopolitical tensions and internal coordination challenges.
