In recent years, the United States' imposition of tariffs has become a hot topic in the field of international economics. Since 2018, the U.S. has implemented large-scale tariff policies against several countries, especially China, aimed at protecting domestic industries and reducing trade deficits. However, this move has triggered disruptions in global supply chains, leading many countries to impose retaliatory tariffs, which have intensified trade tensions. Supporters argue that tariffs help revive U.S. manufacturing, while critics warn that they could raise consumer prices and harm global economic cooperation. As the situation develops into 2025, whether the U.S. will continue this policy remains a matter of great concern, and its long-term effects are yet to be observed.
