#TrumpTariffs In April 2025, Donald Trump implemented universal tariffs of 10%, with specific increases for certain countries, reaching up to 54% for China. This policy aims to revitalize the American manufacturing industry and reduce the trade deficit.
However, these measures have sparked mixed reactions. Temporary agreements, notably with China and the United Kingdom, have been reached to reduce certain tariff barriers. Despite these efforts, criticisms are emerging, highlighting negative impacts on small businesses and increased tensions with trade partners.
Legally, American courts are examining the legality of these tariffs, questioning presidential authority in trade policy.
