Donald Trump has announced plans to impose a 10 per cent global tariff on all imports into the United States, a sweeping trade measure that could reshape global commerce.
The proposed tariff would apply broadly to goods entering the US, marking a significant shift toward protectionist trade policy. Supporters argue it would boost domestic manufacturing and reduce trade deficits, while critics warn it could raise consumer prices and trigger retaliatory actions from trading partners.
Details on implementation timelines and possible exemptions are expected in the coming weeks. Economists say the policy’s impact will depend on its scope, enforcement structure, and how other countries respond.
The move signals a renewed emphasis on trade barriers as part of Trump’s broader economic agenda.
