Trump’s customs duties on China
Last Saturday, the US President had an order to impose harsh customs duties on imports from Mexico, Canada and China.

He also announced the imposition of 25% on imports from Mexico and Canada – the largest of the US trading partners – with the exception of Canadian oil, which will be 10%.

Trump stated that the fees aim to force countries to do more to stop the flow of narcotic fentanel to the United States.
He continued: But it is also in line with Trump’s adoption of protective measures to enhance local manufacturing and as a source of the federal government’s revenues.
