In a first wave, he signed executive orders imposing tariffs of 25% on Canada and Mexico, and 10% on Chinese imports, effective February 4, under the justification of curbing drug trafficking and protecting US production. This measure was only the beginning of an escalation that includes sectoral tariffs\u2014steel, aluminum, automobiles, and energy\u2014set to rise to 50% in some cases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In April, during the so-called &#8220;Liberation Day&#8221; (April 2), Trump signed new executive orders imposing a general 10% tariff on most countries, and specific rates of 20% on the EU, 34% on China, and up to 25% on other key markets, causing a stock market crash and increasing volatility in global markets. As trade negotiations progressed, crucial deadlines such as July 9 were set to avoid the immediate imposition of tariffs or suspensions. Trump warned that if no agreement was reached, the tariffs would go into effect on August 1, with rates that could reach up to 70% for certain countries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">El Economista, 2025, July 19, 2025 <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3WZzKhb\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/bit.ly\/3WZzKhb<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since Donald Trump took office for his second term on January 20, 2025, he has reinitiated an aggressive tariff strategy, rekindling global trade tensions.
