US Plans New Tariffs as Temporary 10% Import Duty Nears Expiry
The US is set to announce new tariffs targeting around 60 countries, including major trading partners like India, China, and the EU, as the temporary 10 per cent global import duty imposed by former President Trump nears expiry on July 24. These fresh tariffs, ranging from 10 to 12.5 per cent, follow a months-long investigation into forced labour concerns and aim to provide a more durable legal basis after the Supreme Court struck down earlier measures. Officials have not confirmed the implementation timeline but emphasize completing legal requirements first.
