Reference Message Network reported on April 12 that according to a report from the Singapore Straits Times website on April 12, during the past two days when the economic and trade contact group of the BRICS countries held a meeting, they emphasized the need to jointly oppose unilateralism and trade protectionism.
According to the official website of China's Ministry of Commerce, the second meeting of the BRICS economic and trade contact group in 2025 was held via video conference from April 10 to 11. Members of the BRICS countries exchanged opinions in depth on the US "reciprocal tariff" policy at the meeting, expressed serious concern about the trade tensions caused by relevant measures, and called for joint opposition to unilateralism and trade protectionism.
The BRICS members are highly concerned about the serious impact of the US "reciprocal tariff" on the multilateral trading system. Several members pointed out that the "reciprocal tariff" seriously violates WTO rules, is an act of unilateralism and protectionism, and will seriously affect global economic growth and harm the interests of many developing countries. The BRICS countries should strengthen unity and send a common voice to the world. All parties will continue to uphold and safeguard the multilateral trading system based on rules, and jointly respond to the current global trade tensions.
