Former U.S. President Donald Trump has proposed steep tariffs on imports: 25% on goods from Canada and Mexico, and 10% on Chinese products.

This proposal raises concerns over economic fallout, strained diplomatic ties, and the potential for trade wars.

While the tariffs are aimed at protecting American industries, critics warn of higher consumer costs and disruptions to global trade.

Some even suggest that the plan may serve as a negotiation tactic rather than a fixed policy.
