Trump imposes global tariffs on imports

usatoday.com —

President Trump signed an order imposing sweeping new tariffs on imports from countries worldwide, effective in one week. The tariffs vary by country, with some facing a 15% rate and others up to 41% on imports where the U.S. has the largest trade deficits. Tariffs on Canadian goods will increase from 25% to 35%. These actions escalate Trump's trade policy aimed at boosting domestic manufacturing, following a deadline for countries to reach trade deals or face higher tariffs.
