Trump Plans to Increase Global Tariffs from 10% to 15%
2026-03-04 20:16

U.S. Treasury Secretary Besent announced that Trump plans to increase the existing global tariffs from 10% to 15%. This measure is expected to be implemented within the week. The 10% tariff was imposed after the Supreme Court invalidated most of Trump's previous tariff system. The new tariff authorization will last for 150 days, during which the U.S. trade department will seek to restore the previous tariff system through other legislative means.
