Trump Threatens Tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and Eu in Coming Weeks
US President Donald Trump has threatened to impose 25% across-the-board tariffs on US neighbors Canada and Mexico, with a new deadline set for March 4. The move comes after Trump relented on plans earlier this month, only to threaten the tariffs once again. Trump also hinted at imposing tariffs on the European Union in April, further escalating his trade war across the Atlantic.
