The U.S. Trade Representative, Jamieson Greer, announced during an interview with CNBC that new tariffs targeting approximately 60 economies are expected to be announced 'soon.' These potential tariffs would replace the temporary 10% duties imposed by former President Donald Trump after they were invalidated by the Supreme Court last year. The new measures could target major U.S. trading partners such as the European Union. Investigations into commercial practices, including forced labor, are ongoing, and a decision is anticipated by the end of the week. However, Greer did not specify an exact timeline.
