Trump to Announce Reciprocal Tariff Measures Amid Trade Tensions

According to Odaily, U.S. President Donald Trump has announced plans to introduce reciprocal tariff measures on Thursday. This decision aims to impose tariffs on imports from countries that have levied higher tariffs on American goods, marking a significant escalation in trade tensions with economic partners. The announcement was made on Trump's Truth Social platform, though specific details regarding the tariff rates, structure, and implementation timeline were not disclosed. White House Press Secretary Levitt previously indicated that Trump intends to unveil the tariff plan before his meeting with Indian Prime Minister Modi on Thursday.
