United States issues Executive Orders imposing additional tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China

  • Announcement of Additional Tariffs: On February 1, 2025, President Trump announced additional tariffs of 25% on imports from Canada and Mexico and 10% on imports from China, citing a national emergency related to illegal immigration and drug trafficking.
  • Delays in Implementation: Tariffs on Mexican goods and Canadian goods have been postponed for one month following discussions between President Trump and leaders from Mexico and Canada.
  • Retaliatory Measures and Responses: Canada announced retaliatory tariffs, while China condemned the tariffs and considered filing a lawsuit with the WTO; both countries remain open to negotiations.
