US President Donald Trump has announced that he will raise the temporary global tariff rate on all goods imported into the United States from 10% to 15%. The tariffs include many countries that have been exploiting the United States for decades. New and legally permissible tariffs will be determined in the coming months. This decision by the British news agency Reuters came after the US Supreme Court ruled yesterday against his major tariff program implemented under the Economic Emergencies Act. Expressing anger at the court ruling, President Trump on Friday… Under the relevant law, the president has the authority to impose a maximum tariff of 15% for 150 days, but this move may also face legal challenges. President Trump said in a statement on the social media platform Social Truth that he is immediately increasing the 10 percent global tariff to the full legally authorized level of 15 percent. He said that many countries have been exploiting the United States for decades. According to Trump, during this 150-day period, his administration will work to introduce new and “legally acceptable” tariff measures. Many of the countries included in the tariffs are countries that have been exploiting the United States for decades. In the coming months, new and legally permissible tariffs will be determined. It should be noted that yesterday, US President Donald Trump expressed his reaction to the Supreme Court’s decision to impose tariffs on other countries. He said that the court’s decision is very disappointing and such decisions are an insult to our nation. He also indicated that there is political pressure on the court and said how easily the court comes under pressure. Such decisions are an insult to the American people. President Trump said that other countries are very happy with the Supreme Court’s decision, the happiness of these countries will not last much longer, I can do whatever I want, I have the authority to end trade with a country and impose sanctions. He also said while holding a press conference that the court’s decision has further increased the authority to impose tariffs, the profits from tariffs will increase further, a 10 percent global tariff will be imposed in addition to other tariffs. I do not need to ask Congress to impose tariffs, all national security tariffs under Section 301 will remain in place. It should be noted that on Friday, the US Supreme Court ruled by a majority of 6 judges to 3, declaring President Trump’s additional tariffs on other countries illegal. Chief Justice John Roberts clarified in a written decision that the president needs the express permission of Congress to impose tariffs and the IEEPA does not give him the authority to do so.
