A push by the US president to undermine the BRICS alliance—an economic bloc of major emerging economies—could inadvertently strengthen its influence instead. Analysts warn that aggressive measures aimed at isolating or fragmenting the group may provoke a unified response, deepening cooperation among its members. The move risks shifting global economic dynamics further away from Western dominance, as BRICS expands its reach and alternative financial systems. Whether the strategy backfires depends on how member states respond to perceived pressure.
The US president wants to weaken BRICS, but he may end up doing the opposite.
