Global restlessness to the new Trump tariffs

Donald Trump will announce his so -called “reciprocal” and the world contain breathing to an ad that could hit the global economy. At the close of this edition, the president had not revealed what exactly the new commercial levies will consist of, but some national media, such as The Wall Street Journal, pointed to global tariffs of 20% on almost all imports. At the moment there is nothing clear, the new administration has a plan on the table, but with details that have taken me to define, as if imposing individualized tariffs on US business partners., Or betting on generalized commercial taxes. Trump said a few days ago that it would be “very generous” than he had initially anticipated when he announced taxes on foreign products that equaled what has been charged so far to US merchandise. However, since last Sunday it seems that the president has been pressing his team so that the announcement is more aggressive, at the height of what he has already baptized as the great “day of liberation”, and that supports Donald Trump’s personal theory that until now all countries have been taking advantage of the US. And the time has come to give accounts.

The secretary of the United States, UU., Scott Besent, in an interview with Fox Business on March 18, coined a new term for this commercial war, the so -called ¨15 dirty¨, 15% of the countries that represent most of the commercial volume of the US. UU. And that impose high tariffs. Besent did not specify that nations enter this group, but only the announcement has already shaken the main partners who fear being among those chosen for that blacklist.

According to several officials, Trump plans to announce the new wave of tariffs today at 4 in the afternoon local time (10:00 at night in Spain) at an event in the Rosas Garden of the White House. And while he is still convinced of the success of his strategy, experts are concerned about the reaction that this announcement can cause on the Wall Street. In March, the main indicators of the Stock Exchange registered the largest monthly percentage falls since December 2022, and among the population there is also concern about how these tariffs will affect the consumer pocket. ¨The president wants to ensure that all Americans win, in particular the common citizens, who are the objective of tariffs. But as I have said repeatedly, as in his first term, Wall Street will be fine, ”said presidential spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt at a press conference. The White House Secretary has also confirmed that the tariffs “will immediately take effect, the president has been suggesting this for a long time.” Now, Leavitt leaves an open door to negotiate with his boss, ¨The president is always willing to attend a call, he is always willing to a good negotiation. But it is very focused on correcting many of the mistakes of the past and demonstrating that US workers have fair treatment¨.

Leavitt has also remarked that the president’s goal is to “reorient our global economy to ensure that the US is again the world manufacturing superpower”. The country, he added, will offer companies taxes, energy costs and the lowest regulations if they manufacture right here and hire American workers. That is Trump’s goal, attracting companies to manufacture here, but we will have to see if their strategy really works at a time when the world begins to turn its back on the US. Uu. For the `ugly ‘that Trump is doing. In Canada, several liquor stores have removed the US products from their shelves, and flight reserves between that country and the US. They have fallen 70% compared to the same period last year, it is the form that the Canadian population has to punish Trump’s hostility towards the Canadians, especially after it has even insinuated to convert the territory in the State 51 of its country. Something similar begins to see in Europe, many tourists are rethinking their vacation to Trump’s country for fear of arrests and incidents that some foreign tourists and travelers have lived in recent weeks. The question is whether Trump’s pressure on companies will take effect for companies to join the Made in America.
