Trump Aims New Tariffs at 59 Countries

June 3, 2026 · 6:19 am ET · Leave a Comment

“President Trump has proposed tariffs of at least 10 percent tariffs on 60 American trading partners, its most aggressive effort yet to enact new import duties after the Supreme Court struck down his sweeping tariffs,” the New York Times reports.

“Jamieson Greer, the U.S. trade representative, said on Tuesday night that investigations found that the 59 countries, along with the 27-nation European Union, had failed to enact or effectively enforce laws prohibiting imports made with forced labor.”
