LIVE This Morning: US President Trump Announces 25% Tariff On Japan & South Korea
On Monday, July 7, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that his administration will impose a 25 percent tariff on all imports from Japan and South Korea, effective August 1, 2025. The decision was made in response to what Trump described as long-standing trade imbalances and unfair trade practices, including both tariff and non-tariff barriers, from the two countries. In identically worded letters sent to South Korean President Lee Jae-myung and Japanese Prime Minister Ishiba Shigeru, Trump emphasized that the United States had demonstrated "great commitment" by maintaining trade relationships despite persistent deficits. He stated that the new tariffs are intended to ensure a more balanced and fair trade environment, concluding his message with the declaration: "We have decided to move forward with you, but only with more balanced, and fair, TRADE." The announcement marks a significant escalation in trade tensions and is likely to have far-reaching implications for economic relations between the U.S. and its key allies in East Asia.
