Live Updates: U.S. Tariffs Take Effect, a New Step in Trump's Trade War

New York Times

3 days ago

President Trump has called the word tariff 'the most beautiful word in the dictionary.' He imposed hefty tariffs during his first term and promised expansive new ones as he pursued his second. On his first day back in the White House, he issued an executive order signaling that more tariffs were coming, and in April he unveiled expansive levies that touched almost every country on earth.
It's been hard to keep track of the state of tariffs ever since. Mr. Trump has frequently issued updates over social media, threatening new tariffs on countries and companies alike, leveraging them to insert himself into foreign affairs and celebrating 'deals' that were often far from complete.
Mr. Trump's strategy has upended diplomatic ties, shaken markets and confounded entire industries. The tariffs target nations that supply a wide variety of goods to the United States, and Americans are likely to see higher prices on cars, electronics, groceries, liquors, lumber and gas.
And Mr. Trump's tariff campaign shows no signs of slowing down. On July 27, the European Union and the United States reached a preliminary trade deal after weeks of negotiations. On Aug. 1, he is set to impose another round of taxes on imports from many countries, including Canada and Mexico.
Here's a timeline of President Trump's widening — and constantly shifting — tariffs.
Jan. 20 🇨🇦 🇲🇽
Hours after he was sworn in, Mr. Trump announced that he would implement additional 25 percent tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico starting on Feb. 1, accusing both countries of not doing enough to stop the flow of drugs and migrants into the United States. Read more ›
Jan. 26 🇨🇴
Surprising even some of his own staff members, Mr. Trump announced on social media that he would immediately impose 25 percent tariffs on all goods from Colombia — and would raise them to 50 percent in one week — after its government turned back planes carrying deported immigrants. Colombia's president, Gustavo Petro, briefly threatened tariffs of his own. But he quickly backed down, and soon so did Mr. Trump. That evening, the White House released a statement saying the government of Colombia had 'agreed to all of President Trump's terms' and the 'tariffs and sanctions will be held in reserve.' Read more ›
Feb. 1 🇨🇦 🇲🇽 🇨🇳
Mr. Trump signed an executive order imposing 25 percent tariffs on nearly all goods from Canada and Mexico, and a 10 percent tariff on China. The president said the tariffs were levied in response to his concerns about fentanyl smuggling and illegal immigration. Canada and Mexico said they would retaliate with tariffs of their own. China threatened 'countermeasures.' Read more ›

transcript Trudeau Announces Retaliatory Tariffs Against the U.S. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of Canada laid out plans to impose more than $100 billion in retaliatory tariffs against the United States, and made clear that Canada was doing so reluctantly.
I want to speak directly to Americans, our closest friends and neighbors. This is a choice that, yes, will harm Canadians, but beyond that, it will have real consequences for you. Tariffs against Canada will put your jobs at risk, potentially shutting down American auto assembly plants and other manufacturing facilities. They will raise costs for you, including food at the grocery stores and gas at the pump. We don't want to be here. We didn't ask for this. But we will not back down in standing up both for Canadians and for the incredible, successful relationship and partnership between Canada and the United States.

The United States launched a trade war against Canada, their closest partner and ally, their closest friend. At the same time, they're talking about working positively with Russia, appeasing Vladimir Putin, a lying, murderous dictator. Make that make sense. Canadians are reasonable and we are polite, but we will not back down from a fight. Not when our country and the well-being of everyone in it is at stake. At the moment, the U.S. tariffs came into effect in the early hours of this morning, and so did the Canadian response. Canada will be implementing 25 percent tariffs against $155 billion worth of American goods, starting with tariffs on $30 billion worth of goods immediately, and tariffs on the remaining $125 billion of American products in 21 days time.

April 2 🌎
A 10 percent tariff was applied to all nations importing goods to the United States — unless a tariff had already been announced on a product or industry. But that base line 10 percent was to be supplemented in certain cases by additional reciprocal tariffs that vary by nation. That meant dozens of countries, including many U.S. allies, faced tariffs far higher than they expected. Read more ›

transcript Trump Announces Tariffs on Global Trading Partners During a news conference, President Trump announced that he would impose a baseline 10 percent tariff on all trading partners, as well as double-digit 'reciprocal tariffs' on dozens of other countries.
This is one of the most important days, in my opinion, in American history. It's our declaration of economic independence. Jobs and factories will come roaring back into our country. China — first row, China 67 percent, that's tariffs charged to the U.S.A., including currency manipulation and trade barriers. So 67 percent, so we're going to be charging a discounted reciprocal tariff of 34 percent, I think. In other words, they charge us, we charge them. We charge them less. So how can anybody be upset? They will be because we never charge anybody anything. But now we're going to charge. European Union, they're very tough, very, very tough traders. You think of European Union, very friendly. They rip us off. It's so sad to see. It's going to be 'Liberation Day' in America. And it's going to be a day that hopefully you're going to look back in years to come and you're going to say, you know, he was right. This has turned out to be one of the most important days in the history of our country.

transcript Trump Pauses 'Reciprocal' Tariffs for Most Countries President Trump decided to pause his 'reciprocal' tariffs on most countries, excluding China, just hours after they went into effect.
'Hello, everybody.' [clapping] 'Can you walk us through your thinking about why you decided to put a 90-day pause.' 'Well, I thought that people were jumping a little bit out of line. They were getting yippy, you know. They were getting a little bit yippy, a little bit afraid.' 'Well, I'm not calling it a trade war, but I am saying that China has escalated, and President Trump responded very courageously to that. And we are going to work on a solution with our trading partners. You might even say that he goaded China into a bad position. They responded — they have shown themselves to the world to be the bad actors. And we are willing to cooperate with our allies and with our trading partners who did not retaliate. It wasn't a hard message. Don't retaliate. Things will turn out well.' [unclear] 'I'll take a look at this. As time goes by, we're going to take a look at it. There are some that have been hard. There are some that, by the nature of the company, get hit a little bit harder. And we'll take a look at that.' [unclear] 'Just instinctively, more than anything else. I mean, you almost can't take a pencil to paper. It's really more of an instinct, I think, than anything else.'
