President Donald Trump has announced new import taxes on all goods entering the US, in the largest upheaval of the International Trade Order since the World War 2, since the World War 2.
His plan determines a baseline tariff of 10% on all imports, according to his proposal during last year’s White House campaign.
Trump stated that items of about 60 business partners have described the items by the White House as “the worst criminals”, including the European Union and China, faced high rates – Paback for unfair trade policies, Trump said.
Analysts stated that the increase in trade war was likely to increase high prices for Americans and a slow rise in the US, while some countries Could drown in a slowdown worldwide.
But in Wednesday’s announcement at the White House, Trump said measures were necessary as the countries were taking advantage of America by implementing high tariffs and other trade obstacles.
Announcing a national emergency, the Republican President said that the US had “robbed, raped, raped and looted by near and distant nations for more than five decades, both friends and enemies alike”.
“This is our announcement of economic freedom,” Trump said against the backdrop of the American flag in Rose Garden.
The White House said that the US will start charging 10% tariff on 5 April on 5 April on 5 April.
“Today we are standing for an American worker and we are finally putting America first,” Trump said, “One of the most important days, in my opinion, said, in American history”.
His decision shocked many analysts.
“He dropped an atomic bomb on the global trading system,” Kane Rozoff told former chief economist at the International Monetary Fund.
Canada and Mexico not affected
Tariffs are tax on imports. On the campaign mark last year, Trump said he would use them to promote manufacturing, promising a new era of American prosperity.
According to the budget office of the non-Pakistani Congress, import tax may increase revenue by 2034 by $ 2.2TN (£ 1.7tn) by 2034.
He spent the weeks, previewing Wednesday’s announcement, complied with other orders that increase tariffs on imports from China, foreign cars, steel and aluminum and 25% on some goods from Mexico and Canada.
For now, the White House stated that the latest changes would not change anything for Mexico and Canada in two closest trading partners in the US.
But other colleagues will face new tariffs, including 10% for the UK and 20% for the European Union, Trump said.
American tariffs on goods from China will jump 34%, at the top of the current 20%levy, the total duties will reach 54%.
The tariff rate will be 24% on goods from Japan and 26% from India.
Some of the highest duties will export from countries that have seen a crowd of investment in recent years, as the firms transferred the supply chains away from China after tariff in Trump’s first term.
The goods of Vietnam and Cambodia will be hit with 46% and 49% respectively.
High levy will also fall on very small countries, with 50%of the products of the southern African country Lesotho.
Treasury Secretary Scott Besent warned other countries not to return.
“My advice for every country is still, not vengeance,” Besent told Fox News.
“Sit back, take it in, let’s see how this happens. Because if you take vengeance, it will increase,” he said. “If you do not retaliate, it is a high watermark.”
Will affect duties Trillion dollars in business, possibly set platform for high prices on clothing, European liquor, bicycle, toys and thousands of other items in the US.
Oilu Sonola, head of US Economic Research at Fitch Rating Agency, said the measure would bring the US tariff rate in 1910.
“Many countries will probably end in recession,” he said.
The US stock market was closed for trade until the time Trump had announced his announcement, which he billed as “Mukti Divas”.
But the shares in the Asia-Pacific region open less on Thursday morning.
Japan’s benchmark stock index, Nikkei 225, was 4% less in early trade. Australia’s ASX 200 was about 2% less.
Wesbash Securities Analyst Dan Evece described the tariff as “worse than the worst case”, which was estimated by investors.
But he said that he believes that there will be talks and discounts.

Trump has described his remedies as “mutual” – in intent as vengeance to the policies of other countries, saying that he calls fuel high trade imbalance.
These include high tariffs, as well as valuable taxes (VATs) or rules that bars foods with some chemicals marks.
Trump also restored a plan to abolish tax-free treatment for small packages from China as May, a step that would damage Amazon rivals such as Shin and Temu.
He confirmed that 25% tax on imports of all foreign manufactured cars, which they declared last week, would start from midnight.
And they reiterated their intentions to hit specific items that were free from Wednesday’s action, such as copper and pharmaceuticals, with separate tariffs.
