Trump delays tariff hike, renews threat against key trading partners

U.S. President Donald Trump

U.S. President Donald Trump has once again pushed back the imposition of higher tariffs on imports into the United States, while simultaneously issuing stark warnings to 14 countries, including strategic allies Japan and South Korea.

The development comes as a 90-day pause on elevated import duties neared its expiration this week.

In letters dispatched to various world leaders, Trump signaled that unless new trade agreements are reached, a 25% tariff on a wide range of foreign goods will take effect starting August 1.

“Our objective is simple: fair trade. If other nations won’t level the playing field, the United States will act decisively.”

The tariffs, which had initially been set to take effect on July 9, were postponed to allow for extended negotiations. White House officials previously indicated they were seeking bilateral trade deals to avert aggressive measures, but Trump’s latest communication suggests a shift back to his combative trade posture.

Japan and South Korea, both major exporters of automobiles and electronics to the U.S., are seen as most at risk.

Trump’s letters warned that retaliatory measures from affected nations would trigger additional penalties.

“Any decision to raise your tariffs will be met with an equal increase on ours 25% plus your retaliatory rate”.
