Trump to impose tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China, raising concerns about prices

NNA - US President Donald Trump will announce the imposition of large customs duties on Canadian, Mexican and Chinese imports, which threatens to disrupt supply chains from energy to cars and raises inflation fears, according to "Agence France-Presse".

Trump has vowed to impose 25% customs duties on neighboring Canada and Mexico, accusing them of failing to prevent irregular immigration and combat drug smuggling into them.

He also vowed to impose 10% customs duties on imports from China, the world's second-largest economy, accusing it of playing a role in producing this narcotic substance.

The United States also runs a "huge deficit" with the three countries, another issue Trump has focused on.
