After US President Donald Trump, the stock markets around the world sank, it was clarified that the tariff scheme on Mexico and Canada would be effective. Trump’s comments on Monday feared a trade war in North America and sent financial markets again. The US stocks rapidly tumbled in the afternoon trading, while Mexican Peso and Canadian dollars also fell.
The US President has stated that 25 percent of US tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico will come into effect from Tuesday, which after 30-day stagnation on duties, tied to illegal border crossing and finishing the Fantanelle flow in the United States. The American also confirmed that it would increase tariffs on all sugar imports from the last 10 percent levy, to punish Phantenyl in the US to punish Beijing.
What did Trump say?
Trump said at the White House, “They are going to be tariffs.
He said that there was a “no room left” for a deal that would stop the tariff by curbing the Phantanel flow in the United States.
On hiking tariffs on all Chinese imports, the President said in an order that Beijing has “not taken enough steps to reduce the illegal drug crisis”.

At the same time, the US Customs and Border Security Agency will begin collecting 25 percent Canadian and Mexican goods with 10 percent duty for Canadian energy.
Trump has long maintained that tariffs were a useful tool to fix business imbalance and protect American manufacturing, dismissing concerns that they risk economic damage in the US, despite close relations, especially in North America, where businesses have enjoyed free trade for decades.
According to CEOs and economists, Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico suffered a serious blow to the highly integrated North American economy, covering more than $ 900 billion annual US imports.
Canada, Mexico and China reply

Trump’s plan for mutual tariff
During the previous week, Trump ordered a revival of tariff probe on countries that levy digital service taxes, every time a Chinese-made ship enters a US port and starts a new tariff probe into copper imports.
These come to the top of their plans for the higher American “mutual tariffs” to match the tariff rates of other countries and to overcome their other trade obstacles, a step that can work hard on the charge of the member states of the value enhanced taxes to the European Union.
