Ekonomiya · Trump's new tariffs · ArkiboTrump Replaces Expiring 10% Tariff with Permanent Levies on 60 Countries Covering 99% of US TradeIsinulat Setyembre 7, 2026 nang 9:22 PM UTCManoodTranskripsyon0:00Good evening. The temporary 10% global0:02tariff expires Friday, but the Trump0:04administration is already replacing it0:06with something far more sweeping. USTR0:09Jameson Greer is rolling out permanent0:11Section 301 tariffs on 60 countries0:13covering roughly 99% of all US imports,0:16citing forced labor concerns tied to0:18China's Xinjiang region. The change0:20takes effect the moment the old tariff0:21expires. A look at the scope, these0:23tariffs hit nearly every major US0:25trading partner. The administration is0:27using a two-tier structure, a 10% rate0:29on roughly 14 to 16 countries that have0:31partial force labor prohibitions in0:33place, and a higher 12.5% rate on the0:36remaining 44 to 46 countries. The force0:38labor rationale specifically targets0:40Xinjiang's polysilicon and cotton supply0:42chains. The administration is grounding0:45the new tariffs in forced labor0:46concerns, pointing specifically to0:49China's Xinjiang region, where0:50polysilicon for solar panels and cotton0:53for textiles are produced. The USTR says0:55these permanent tariffs close the0:57loophole left by the expiring temporary0:59measure. Exemptions do exist. Civil1:01aircraft, steel, and aluminum already1:03under Section 232, energy products,1:06critical minerals, and some1:07pharmaceuticals are carved out. But1:09there is a separate, more aggressive1:10move against America's northern1:12neighbor. Canada faces 50% tariffs under1:14Section 338, a law from 1930 that has1:17never been used before. Prime Minister1:19Mark Carney has a 30-day window to1:21negotiate before the full levy takes1:23effect. Carney's statement came as1:25Canadian officials prepared for1:26emergency talks. The 50% tariff would1:28apply broadly across Canadian goods,1:31marking a dramatic escalation in what is1:32now the most serious trade confrontation1:34between the two neighbors in decades.1:36The full picture: two tiers of Section1:38301 tariffs, covering 60 countries, plus1:41the separate 50% levy aimed at Canada.1:44Together, these permanent measures would1:45reshape nearly all of America's trade1:47relationships, and Americans are taking1:49notice. A new CNN poll shows 63% of1:52Americans now oppose the new tariffs, a1:54sharp jump from 48% back in November.1:57Just 37% are in favor. Consumers are2:00already seeing higher prices on imported2:02goods. So, where things stand.2:04The temporary 10% tariff expires Friday.2:08USTR Lighthizer is set to replace it2:10immediately with permanent Section 3012:12tariffs on 60 countries across two2:14tiers, 10% and 12.5%.2:17Canada separately faces a2:18never-before-used 50% levy with 30 days2:21to negotiate.
