- The White House criticizes India’s 100% tariff on US agricultural products, calling for reciprocal tariffs.
- Other countries like the EU, Japan, and Canada also impose high tariffs on US goods.
- President Trump plans to introduce retaliatory tariffs on April 2, marking “Liberation Day.”
Ahead of US President Donald Trump’s “Liberation Day” on April 2, the White House has made a strong statement about trade. They said that India has imposed a 100% tariff on US agricultural products, and now it’s time for the US to respond with similar tariffs.
The White House criticized high tariffs from various countries, including India. They pointed out that the European Union charges a 50% tariff on US dairy products, Japan has a 700% tariff on US rice, and Canada charges nearly 300% on American butter and cheese. India’s 100% tariff on US agricultural goods also makes it difficult for American products to be sold in these countries.
President Trump has often spoken out about how these high tariffs hurt US businesses and workers. As part of his plan, he intends to introduce his own tariffs on April 2, calling it “Liberation Day” for the United States.
