US President Donald Trump indicated that future trade deals might involve higher tariffs than the 10% agreed upon with the UK. During a recent White House press conference, Trump referred to the 10% figure as the "lowest number," implying that other countries should expect steeper tariffs. He clarified that this agreement with the UK should not be considered a standard template, stating, "You can think of 10% as the baseline, but it's not a template for future deals. It's probably the lowest level." This statement suggests a potentially tougher stance in upcoming trade negotiations with other nations, leaving the business community in suspense as to how these trade tariffs will impact consumer pricing and the global supply chain. Trump's remarks signal a continuation of his administration's focus on using tariffs as a negotiating tool in international trade relations. ```
