The White House harshly criticized Amazon on Tuesday for reports indicating that it would begin informing consumers about how much Trump's tariffs add to the final price of their products.

"This is a hostile and political act by Amazon. Why didn't they do this when the Biden administration raised inflation to its highest level in 40 years?" asked press secretary, Karoline Leavitt.

The information about Amazon's initiative was published earlier in Punchbowl News, citing a person familiar with the matter.

Amazon did not immediately respond to a request for comment from AFP.
