President Donald Trump says he is pausing his tariffs scheme for 90 days on 75 trading partners who have not retaliated against his administration’s tariff regime that accelerated after midnight Wednesday.
In a post on X just before 1:30 p.m., Trump wrote the move was based on the fact that these countries had called in to “discuss” the issues Trump had raised regarding their alleged trade barriers with the U.S.
A 10% duty across-the-board duty will remain in place for these countries, Trump added.
