Trump’s controversial tariffs marked as the duties of “Liberation Day”, target imports from most American business partners. Another 25% of tariffs were also selected for goods from Canada, Mexico and China, which quoted their alleged role in the Fentanyl flow to the US.
The US International Trade Court ruled that IEEPA should not have been used for business policy, noting that it aims to address national emergencies, not to serve as a tool for storing broad economic restrictions.
