25% on the neighbors of the USA, 10% on Beijing
Tomorrow, February 1st, it will take 25% duties on Canada and Mexico and 10% on China. This was stated by the spokesman for the White House, Karoline Leavitt, calling “false” rumors reported by the Reuters who had reported a slip to March 1st.
“Canada and Mexico have allowed an illegal invasion of migrants and Fentanyl,” Leavitt said explaining why duties will be imposed on the two countries. Fentanyl is also the cause of rates against China. And to those who asked her for a comment on the words of Canadian premier Justin Trudeau, who promised a strong response to American duties, Leavitt replied: Trudeau “would do better to speak directly with Trump before issuing these statements to the media”.
