📰 Trump and global tariffs at 15%: what is happening

The President of the United States, Donald Trump, announced the intention to raise global customs tariffs to 15% on many imports, replacing a previous level of 10% that had been imposed a few days earlier. The measure arises in response to a significant ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court that deemed the first version of the tariffs illegitimate, thus creating uncertainty about U.S. trade policies.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent stated that this increase to 15% could take effect as early as this week and that U.S. authorities are trying to build a more solid legal framework to maintain these tariffs in the coming months.
