While addressing a press briefing recently, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated that Trump will take any necessary action to prevent nations from taking "advantage of the US" and its people.

"The president feels, generally speaking, that BRICS is seeking to undermine the interests of the United States. It's the president's utmost responsibility to put the interests of the United States first. That's how he views his job as president. So, he's going to ensure that America is fairly treated on the world stage, and he'll take any action necessary to prevent countries from taking advantage of the United States and our people."
