According to Foresight News, Trump announced on Truth Social that the United States would raise tariffs on China to 125%, effective immediately. Meanwhile, given that over 75 countries have contacted the United States representatives for trade negotiations, he has authorized a 90-day suspension of new tariffs, during which the reciprocal tariffs will be significantly reduced to 10%, effective immediately.
Trump stated: "In light of China's disrespect for the global market, I now announce that the United States will raise tariffs on China to 125%, effective immediately. I hope that in the near future, China will realize that the days of exploiting the United States and other countries are over and will no longer be accepted. Instead, based on the fact that over 75 countries have contacted U.S. representatives, including the Department of Commerce, the Department of the Treasury, and the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative, to discuss issues related to trade, trade barriers, tariffs, currency manipulation, and non-monetary tariffs, and these countries, at my strong suggestion, have not retaliated against the United States in any way or form, I have authorized a 90-day suspension, during which the reciprocal tariffs will be significantly reduced to 10%, effective immediately."
