China BRICS Trade Reaches $330 Million: Outperforms US Trade. Trade between China and its fellow BRICS alliance members has officially reached a massive $330 million, outperforming its trade with the United States. This significant milestone underscores the growing economic power of the BRICS alliance in 2025, the economic partnership between Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.

China's trade with fellow BRICS alliance members expanded 19.1 percent year on year to 2.38 trillion yuan (about 330.62 billion U.S. dollars) during the January-September period. This robust growth highlights China's dominance; China takes up the majority of overall trade within BRICS. China records significant trade figures, further solidifying its position as a key driver of economic activity within the bloc.

The BRICS alliance continues its upward trade trajectory, signaling potential for further growth and expansion. China's foreign trade with other BRICS member countries reached 4.62 trillion yuan (648 billion U.S. dollars) in the first nine months of 2025, a year-on-year increase. This upward trend contrasts sharply with the situation facing US-China trade.

The recent escalation in trade tensions between the United States and Chinacentered on U.S. tariffs targeting key Chinese industrieshas gone beyond a bilateral issue, potentially influencing the global economic landscape. This development further emphasizes the significance of the thriving China BRICS trade relationship as an alternative and powerful economic force.
