Almost a week before the end of a period set by US President Donald Trump in the customs dispute, he announced that he will probably inform his trading partners about the punitive tariffs applicable to her from Friday. “I tend to send a letter and tell you which tariffs you will pay,” Trump said on Thursday (local time) in front of journalists. That is much easier. “We will send a few letters, probably from tomorrow,” added Trump.
On July 9, a period set by Trump in the customs dispute with numerous trading partners, including the EU. The states concerned are now trying to make agreements with the USA to avert higher tariffs. US officials have signaled that several trade agreements could be announced in the coming days.
The EU threatened Trump with customs surcharges of 50 percent if it did not agree with the USA by July 9, but also indicated the possibility of extending the deadline. 50 percent inch would be five times the currently valid ten percent – this basic customs set introduced by Trump for most goods is also significantly higher than the previous customs level.
