The new tariffs will take effect on Tuesday, February 4 at 19:01 Kyiv time.
Under the trade deal Trump signed during his first term, most goods from Canada and Mexico were not tariffed, while many Chinese goods were taxed at up to 25%. The new tariffs will put an additional burden on importers.
According to a White House official, Trump signed a total of three executive orders imposing additional tariffs. This was the first step by the Trump administration in its second trade war.
