  • President Donald Trump on Monday announced tariffs of 25% on all steel and aluminium imports into the United States. The Republican signed orders to this effect at the White House and said that the tariffs would apply without exceptions and to imports from all countries.

The article from MSN discusses former President Donald Trump's decision to impose a 25% tariff on all steel and aluminum imports into the United States. This move was part of Trump's broader "America First" trade policy aimed at protecting domestic industries from what he described as unfair trade practices by other countries. The tariffs were intended to boost American steel and aluminum production by making foreign products more expensive, thereby encouraging consumers to buy American-made goods. Critics argued that these tariffs could lead to higher prices for consumers, potential retaliation from trade partners, and disruptions in global supply chains. The decision was met with mixed reactions; while some domestic producers welcomed the protection, industries reliant on imported metals expressed concerns over increased costs and potential job losses. The article also touches on the ongoing debate about the effectiveness and economic impact of such protectionist measures.
