The White House said on Friday that 25 percent on imports from Canada and Mexico and 10 percent tariff on goods imported from China would be applicable from Saturday.
However, the White House did not give any information about whether there would be any discount in these measures as these tariffs can result in quite expensive for American consumers.
President Donald Trump recently announced these tariffs. Republican leaders Trump is claiming to be a tariff to ensure more cooperation from countries to prevent illegal immigration and smuggling of chemicals used for ‘fennel’.
However, he has also said that its purpose is to promote domestic manufacturing. White House press secretary Caroline Lewit told reporters, “This fee will be applicable from tomorrow (Saturday). These promises were made by the President and now they are being fulfilled. ”
Trump had said that he was considering continuing exemption for oil imports from Canada and Mexico, but Lewitt said he had no information to share the President’s decision to cut any possible cuts.
Meanwhile, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Friday that Canada is ready to give a proper answer if Trump’s tariff is implemented. However, he did not give details of this.
Mexico President Claudia Shanbom said that in the event of the tariff to be implemented, Mexico has “Plan A, Plan A, Plan B, Plan C” for whatever decision the US government takes.
