Event Summary

The United States is set to impose new tariffs targeting 60 trading partners over alleged failures to act against forced labor, as President Donald Trump's temporary 10% global levy expires on July 24. Trade envoy Jamieson Greer signaled the upcoming actions, with rates between 10% and 12.5%. Additionally, the US announced a 25% tariff on certain Brazilian goods effective July 22, a 50% tariff on many Canadian products effective August 19, and a 100% tariff on generic drugs from August 2028. The moves aim to rebuild Trump's trade agenda after legal setbacks and use tariffs as leverage in USMCA negotiations. Canada and the EU have criticized the measures, raising fears of retaliation and trade tensions.
