Trump’s Tariff Pause Is Set to Expire

“President Donald Trump’s trade war risks reigniting next week when a temporary pause on sweeping tariffs is set to expire, potentially driving up costs for businesses and raising prices for consumers,” NBC News reports.

“While Trump and administration officials recently indicated the deadline might be pushed back, the president told reporters Tuesday that he wasn’t planning an extension and is informing countries of their new tariff rates. He said it has been harder than planned to make trade deals with a number of foreign governments because they are ‘spoiled from having ripped us off for 30, 40 years.’”
