Trump named the approximate profit of the United States from the new duties
US President Donald Trump estimated the country's benefits from increased import duties at $6-7 trillion. He made the corresponding statement on April 3 in an interview with journalists.
"I think it's going very well. The United States will have 6-7 trillion coming into the country," he said.
Trump also expressed hope for an improvement in the economic situation and the revival of markets and the economy of the state.
On April 3, Trump imposed duties on imports of goods from the European Union and some other countries. Russia is not on the list. The measures will affect not only the EU (20%), but also China (34%), Vietnam (46%), Israel (17%), Indonesia (32%), Cambodia (49%), Malaysia (24%), South Korea (25%), Thailand (36%), Taiwan (32%), Switzerland (31%), Japan (24%) and other countries.
Earlier in the day, political analyst Matvey Kiselyov said that Trump's imposition of tariffs would increase fluctuations in the financial market. He stressed that uncertainty about the future of the global financial system has increased, deepening the gap in global trade chains.
