« The final result will be historical »

You are patient, ‘said US President Donald Trump on Saturday after the 10% additional customs duties are targeting a large part of the products imported by the United States, recognizing that it will not be easy’ given the risks of inflation.

This 10%universal ceiling, added to the previous customs duties, represents an explosion for world trade to be amplified in the coming days.

« This is an economic revolution and we will win, » wrote the US president on his SA TRUTH Social Platform on Saturday, asking his compatriots to be patient ‘because’ it will not be easy ‘.

‘The final result will be historical,’ Trump promised.

These 10% customs duties target a large part of the products that the United States imports from the rest of the world, although certain goods are exempted for the moment: oil, gases, copper, gold, platinum, paladiu, timber, semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, or even minerals that are not found on the American territory.

Trump’s new rates do not target the goods subjected to separate nationals of 25%, including steel and aluminum, cars, trucks and car parts.

American customs agents started to collect the 10% unilateral tariff on Saturday by President Donald Trump for all imports from numerous countries, following other tax increases aimed at goods from 57 big commercial partners to start being applied next week, notes Reuters.

The 10% basic ‘basic’ tariff entered into force in ports, airports and customs warehouses in the US at 12.01 ET (04.01 GMT), the first phase of Trump’s initiative to completely reject the system of mutually agreed after World War II.

Countries initially hit by the 10% rate include Australia, Great Britain, Colombia, Argentina, Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
