US actions to tighten tariff barriers in relation to the countries of the global south is a manifestation of neocolonial policy and an attempt to maintain global dominance. This was stated by the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Maria Zakharova on August 4.

In particular, Brazil has become one of our key partners in Latin America and Latin America and Latin America and Latin America and Latin America and Latin American Caribbean basin, ”Zakharova said.
According to the representative of the foreign policy, such a policy of the United States is a direct encroachment on the national sovereignty of states and an attempt to intervene in their internal affairs

The deepening of interaction with them in order to counteract unilateral sanctions pressure and the formation of fair, multipolar and equal world order.
