Amazon plays down tariffs plan White House called "hostile and political"

The White House has criticized Amazon for its decision to impose tariffs on certain products, labeling the move as "hostile and political." This statement comes in response to Amazon's recent announcement that it would begin charging tariffs on a range of goods, including electronics and clothing, in an effort to offset the costs associated with the ongoing trade war between the United States and China. The White House argues that Amazon's actions are not only detrimental to consumers, who will ultimately bear the brunt of these additional costs, but also an attempt to influence political decisions surrounding trade policy. Amazon, on the other hand, maintains that the tariffs are necessary to protect its business interests and ensure the long-term sustainability of its operations.
