U.S. President Donald Trump has shaken the world economy by imposing sweeping import tariffs on virtually all goods entering the United States. The move marks what many experts are calling the beginning of a historic global trade war, as economies scramble to assess the impact of this aggressive policy shift.
In addition to the minimum blanket 10% tariff, Trump has singled out 60 nations for even steeper import duties, branding them “the worst offenders” when it comes to unfair trade practices and barriers. The 10% tariff will take effect this Friday, while the elevated tariffs for the targeted nations — set to be significantly higher — will be implemented on April 9.
