Former Indonesian Vice President Jusuf Kalla (JK) criticized U.S. President #DonaldTrump import tariff policy, calling it a move driven by emotion rather than sound economic judgment. JK argued that high tariffs on imports from China and other countries ultimately burden American consumers with higher prices. Speaking at a public lecture at Paramadina University, he likened #TRUMP decision to "shooting his own foot." JK also warned that such policies could trigger a global trade war and economic crisis, though he noted the direct impact on Indonesia would be minimal, as exports to the U.S. account for only about 2% of the country’s GDP.
