Trump Unveils Sweeping Reciprocal Tariff Plan Affecting 180+ Countries

President Donald Trump revealed on Wednesday the U.S. "reciprocal tariff" levels more than 180 countries and territories, including those in the European Union, will bear under his broad new trade policy.

Trump and the White House posted a series of graphs on social media explaining the tariff rates they allege other countries charge the U.S. These figures include what the administration calls each country's “Currency Manipulation and Trade Barriers.”

A column directly adjacent to those rates displays the new U.S. tariffs that will be applied to each of these nations, including EU member states.

According to the administration, these new tariffs are, in most instances, about half of what each country has allegedly "charged" the United States through their trade barriers.

However, the reciprocal tariff rates won’t be the only duties these countries may face. The White House confirmed that China, for example, will receive a new reciprocal tariff rate in addition to existing tariffs totaling 20%. This will raise the effective tariff rate on Chinese imports to 54% during this Trump administration term.

Trump stated that his plan begins with a 10% baseline tariff applied across the board. Still, the charts released make it clear that several nations will face significantly higher tariffs based on their own trade practices.

“We're going to charge them about half of what they've been and are charging us,” Trump said during an announcement in the White House Rose Garden.

“So, the tariffs will not be a full reciprocal,” he clarified, emphasizing that the reduced rate accounts for “the combined rate of all their tariffs, nonmonetary barriers and other forms of cheating.”
