Trump appeals from a court decision that blocks a new tariff policy

The US administration appealed on Wednesday from a court decision that blocks most of the import tariffs imposed by the president. The Federal Court argues that it extrapolated its authority by adopting the measure.

Donald Trump decided to appeal after becoming aware of the Federal Court’s decision, which considered his tariff policy illegal, despite the government’s insistence on the need for these taxes. Administration argues that there are significant commercial deficits that have created a « national economic emergency. »

The appeal was filed at the United States Appeal Court, according to judicial documents obtained by the US television chain CNN.

Trump’s government action has created uncertainty for companies and consumers in the country, paving the way for a prolonged commercial battle.

The court ruling affects the so -called “Liberation Day” fares, when Trump announced the imposition of tariffs against China, Mexico and Canada.

These rates can now be frozen while funds are resolved in court, even before the US can close trade agreements with third countries.
