U.S. President Donald Trump reaffirmed that all tariffs imposed on foreign countries will remain in effect, calling their removal a “total disaster.” His remarks followed a U.S. appeals court ruling that many of his tariffs were illegal, though they remain temporarily in place. Trump vowed to challenge the decision in the Supreme Court, arguing that tariffs protect American workers and manufacturers. He warned that lifting them would weaken the U.S. financially and undermine national security. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick echoed concerns, stating that removing tariffs could derail foreign policy and trigger retaliation. Trump’s administration continues to defend sweeping import taxes, including 50% tariffs on India and Brazil. (PC: History)
