Jaishankar OPENLY REJECTS Trump’s SHUN BRICS Call; Putin Watches As India Blasts U.S. Bullying
In a powerful statement during the 2025 BRICS virtual summit, Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar strongly dismissed former U.S. President Donald Trump’s call to isolate BRICS nations. Speaking on behalf of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Jaishankar emphasized the importance of fair, transparent, and cooperative economic practices amid rising global trade tensions. He highlighted the need for resilient supply chains, especially given recent disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, and climate crises.
Jaishankar sharply criticized the U.S. for its bullying trade policies, including tariffs and trade measures linked to geopolitical issues, warning that increasing barriers only harm all parties involved. With Russia’s Vladimir Putin observing the proceedings, Jaishankar urged BRICS countries to lead by example in promoting sustainable and mutually beneficial trade within the bloc. This clear rejection of Trump’s aggressive stance reflects India’s growing commitment to a multipolar global order and its pushback against unilateral economic coercion.
This summit marks a significant moment as BRICS members openly challenge U.S. policies while navigating complex geopolitical dynamics. Watch to understand how India’s diplomatic assertiveness is reshaping international trade relations amid escalating tensions.
