Appeals court reinstates Trump's tariffs after trade court moves to block
A federal appeals court has temporarily reinstated President Donald Trump's tariffs, just a day after a trade court ruling found the majority of the global tariffs to exceed presidential authority.
The ruling from the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington gave no further reasoning or clarification but granted the emergency notion from the Trump administration, giving the plaintiffs until June 5 to respond and the administration until June 9, noting that a pause is "critical for the country's national security."
The White House applauded the ruling, as in its appeal, the administration argued that the trade court's ruling had overstepped judicial bounds by undermining presidential authority and jeopardizing the outcomes of protracted trade negotiations.
"The political branches, not courts, make foreign policy and chart economic policy," it said in the filing.
The New York trade court's ruling on Wednesday sought to nullify tariffs introduced by President Trump in February on imports from China, Mexico, and Canada, citing an overreach of presidential authority under the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which, it ruled, does not permit such broad measures without Congressional involvement.
The ruling also targeted Trump's global 10 percent import tax and increased reciprocal tariffs on key partners like the EU and China. However, it left untouched separate duties on cars, steel, and aluminum, which were enacted under different legislation.
The White House has adjusted or paused some tariffs amid ongoing negotiations, and a hearing has been scheduled for June 5.

China accuses US of ‘seriously violating' trade war truce
Update: Date: 2025-06-02T06:36:56.000Z Title: Introduction: China accuses US of 'seriously violating' trade truce Content: Good morning, and welcome to our rolling coverage of business, the financial markets and the world economy. Trade war tensions are on the rise again, as relations between China and the US deteriorate. Beijing has hit back this morning against Washington, accusing the US of 'seriously violating' the trade truce which the two powers agreed in Zurich last month. China's commerce ministry also promised to take forceful measures to safeguard its interests, rejecting a claim from Donald Trump last week that China has 'totally violated' its trade agreement with the US. In a statement, the ministry said: 'The U.S. government has unilaterally and repeatedly provoked new economic and trade frictions, exacerbating uncertainty and instability in bilateral economic and trade relations.' Beijing accused the US of unilaterally introducing new discriminatory restrictions, including new guidelines on AI chip export controls, curbs on chip design software sales to China and the revocation of Chinese student visas, Bloomberg reports. Stock markets across the Asia-Pacific region have dropped today, as investors fret that the détente between the two sides is fraying. Last Friday, the US president – perhaps stung by jibes that Trump Always Chickens Out – declared that China 'HAS TOTALLY VIOLATED ITS AGREEMENT WITH US.', raising fears that the trade war will continue to rattle the global economy. This latest uncertainty is hurting the US dollar. It has slipped against a basket of currencies, with the pound up almost half a cent at $1.35, and the euro gaining a third of a cent to $1.138. The legality of Trump's trade war was also thown into doubt last week, when a US federal court ruled that his 'liberation day' tariff plan is illegal, only for a federal appeals court to temporarily reinstate the tariffs while the case progresses. 9am BST: Eurozone manufacturing PMI for May 9.30am BST: UK manufacturing PMI for May 9.30am BST: Bank of England mortgage approvals and credit conditions data 3pm BST: US manufacturing PMI for May
