Trump’s broad tariffs go into effect, just as economic pain is surfacing

UNITED STATES, AUG 7 – President Trump's tariffs raise duties up to 50% on imports from over 60 countries, aiming to reduce trade imbalances and could generate $300 billion in annual federal revenue, experts say.

  • Donald Trump has imposed new tariffs on most of America's trading partners, reinstating the 'reciprocal tariffs' announced in April.
  • Some countries like Syria, Laos, Myanmar, Switzerland, Brazil and India are facing high tariff rates ranging from 39% to 50%.
  • While the tariffs have brought billions of dollars in revenue for the US government, they threaten to disrupt exports, industries and economies globally.
