Trump Unveils ‘Liberation Day’ Tariffs Amid Global Trade Tensions

US President Donald Trump is set to announce his highly anticipated “Liberation Day” tariffs today, a move that could potentially spark a global trade war.

The tariffs, which will be unveiled at 4:00 pm EDT in the Rose Garden of the White House, are expected to target

countries that have imposed tariffs on the United States.

Trump has been a long-time advocate for tariffs, believing they will help tackle America’s trade imbalances and

promote domestic manufacturing. However, critics argue that the tariffs will ultimately harm US consumers, who will

bear the brunt of the costs, and increase the risk of a damaging recession.

The White House has kept the details of the tariffs under wraps, but it is expected that they will be imposed on a

range of countries, including China, Canada, and Mexico. The European Union has also been critical of Trump’s tariff

policies and has vowed to retaliate if necessary.
