The United States has returned some 86 billion euros of customs duties collected

The article reports that the U.S. administration under former President Donald Trump has returned approximately 86.62 billion euros (about 100 billion dollars) collected through illegal tariffs, which were ruled unlawful by the Supreme Court. This amount represents around 60% of the total 143.8 billion euros (166 billion dollars) collected from importers in the U.S. The return follows a court decision that deemed these 'tariff-in-tariff' measures unconstitutional. Trump continues to claim that higher tariffs he imposes pay for goods coming into the U.S., but the article notes that even after the repeal of these tariffs, the U.S. still imposes duties under other laws, which are also subject to lawsuits.
