Trump's Trade Tactics Set to Shift Global Tariff Dynamics

In a strategic move poised to alter international trade landscapes, U.S. President Donald Trump is gearing up to meet with his trade team this week. The agenda includes setting specific tariff rates for individual countries that are unwilling to enter into negotiations with the United States.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt disclosed this information during a briefing on Monday, emphasizing the administration's stance on prioritizing American trade interests. The potential adjustments to tariff rates could have significant repercussions for global trade relations.

This development is part of a broader strategy by the Trump administration to leverage tariffs as a tool of economic diplomacy, aiming to recalibrate trade deals that are more favorable to U.S. interests.
