President Donald Trump introduced a state of emergency in the United States of America.
The reason for this is that the trade practice of other countries posed an economic threat to the United States. The constant annual shortage of goods in the States led to the collapse of the US production base, undermining the critical supply chains and “” set our defense-industrial base, depending on foreign enemies. ” This was reported by the Press of the White House.
That is why from April 5, 2025, a total of 10% tariff for all imported goods will work. And from April 9, new trade duties will be in force.
The Trump administration noted that other countries correspond to countermeasures, then Washington can increase the responsibilities even more. Nevertheless, a number of goods – energy, medicines and semiconductors were released from new duties.
Trump believes that such a policy will reduce trade deficit, support American manufacturers and improve the country’s economic security.
Recall that on April 2, US President Donald Trump introduced great duties on American imports. The minimum level of 10% will be valid from April 5 for all countries in the list. Mutual tariffs, which are individual for each country, entered into force on April 9th. In particular, the minimum duties of 10%will be submitted to Ukraine.
The duties were accepted by the country of the aggressor, Belarus, Cuba and North Korea, because sanctions were already imposed on these countries, and the duties are already too high.
