The recent tariffs hike on imports to the US by President Donald Trump has generated controversies and debate globally on its likely impacts on global economy.
RecalI that in his speech, he listed the new tariffs to be imposed on a number of countries, including the country’s biggest trading partners, and a more complete list was released later by the White House.
No further tariffs were announced for Canada or Mexico. Both countries had already seen tariffs imposed in February – though these have since been partially rolled back.
China will now see an effective tariff of 54%, as the new 34% tariff will be added to the 20% tariff already in place.
