Washington D.C. - In a sweeping move that has sent shockwaves through the global economy, the Trump administration has enacted a series of broad-ranging tariffs, dubbed "America First Liberation Day." Announced on April 2, 2025, these measures fundamentally reshape the landscape of international trade, aiming to fulfill the President's "America First" agenda by prioritizing domestic manufacturing and what the administration terms "fair and reciprocal" trade.
The centerpiece of this new policy is a 10% universal baseline tariff on nearly all goods imported into the United States. This is supplemented by a system of "reciprocal" tariffs on a country-by-country basis, with rates escalating for nations the administration deems to have unfair trade practices. These additional tariffs can range significantly, with some countries facing levies of 25% or higher on their exports to the U.S.
The stated goal of these tariffs, according to the administration, is to protect and revitalize American industries, bring back manufacturing jobs, and reduce the nation's trade deficit. The White House has argued that the United States has for too long been taken advantage of by other countries with high tariffs on American goods and non-tariff barriers to trade.
Key Provisions of the 'America First Liberation Day' Tariffs:
Universal Baseline Tariff: A foundational 10% tariff on almost all imported goods, creating a new floor for the cost of foreign products entering the U.S. market.
Reciprocal Tariffs: Additional, and in many cases substantial, tariffs levied on specific countries. The administration has indicated these are designed to mirror the tariffs those countries impose on American products.
Targeted Sectoral Tariffs: Beyond the broad-based tariffs, the administration has continued and in some cases expanded tariffs on specific sectors. This includes steep levies on steel and aluminum, as well as new tariffs on a range of consumer goods.
Enforcement and Negotiations: The administration has emphasized that these tariffs are also a tool to bring trading partners to the negotiating table with the aim of striking new bilateral trade deals that are more favorable to the United States.

After meeting US President Donald Trump in Alaska to discuss Russia-Ukraine war ceasefire, Russian President Vladimir Putin said, "Good afternoon, dear neighbour. Very good to see you in good health and to see you alive."

Premjerministrs Narendra Modi ceturtdien saņēma telefona zvanu no Brazīlijas prezidenta Luiza Inacio Lula da Silva. Premjerministrs Modi atcerējās savu vizīti Brazīlijā pagājušajā mēnesī, kurā abi līderi vienojās par ietvaru, lai stiprinātu sadarbību tirdzniecībā, tehnoloģijās, enerģētikā, aizsardzībā, lauksaimniecībā, veselībā un cilvēku attiecībās. Tas notiek ASV prezidenta Donalda Trampa tarifu spiediena apstākļos.

Ārlietu ministrija izdeva paziņojumu pēc tam, kad ASV prezidents Donalds Tramps paaugstināja muitas nodevu Indijai līdz 50%. "Ir ārkārtīgi nožēlojami, ka ASV izvēlējās piemērot papildu muitas nodevas Indijai par rīcību, ko veic arī vairākas citas valstis savās nacionālajās interesēs," teikts paziņojumā. "Mēs atkārtojam, ka šīs darbības ir netaisnas, nepamatotas un neracionālas," piebilda ministrija.

Viņš teica, ka ASV nenoslēgs nekādus tirdzniecības darījumus ar nevienu no valstīm, ja tās cīnās. "Daudzi cilvēki tiek nogalināti šajā karā... tas... man atgādina konfliktu starp Pakistānu un Indiju," viņš piebilda.
