Economists suggest the impact is mixed, with a weak dollar offering short-term benefits to the US, but long-term consequences remain unclear. The legal basis for the tariffs is also being questioned. The situation resembles historical trade protectionism, raising concerns about future trade flows and potential economic instability. The ultimate cost of these trade policies is still being debated.
