How were Donald Trump's tariffs calculated?
- President Donald Trump announced a 10% tariff on nearly all countries, effective April 5, 2025, due to an 'economic emergency' declared by his administration.
- Certain countries, including China, will face even higher tariffs due to being labeled 'worst offenders' in trade practices by Trump.
- Countries already facing U.S. Sanctions, such as Russia and Iran, will not be affected by the new 10% tariff.
- Economists warn that these tariffs may lead to increased prices for imports, potentially harming the economy due to inflationary pressures.
