President Donald Trump's sweeping reciprocal tariffs announcement on Wednesday has several countries taking varied approaches in how to respond.
President Donald Trump is scheduled to announce significant tariffs on other countries in a speech Wednesday afternoon at the White House.
President Donald Trump’s promised tariffs are a day away – and they’ll go into effect sooner than some had expected. As in, immediately, the White House said Tuesday.
President Trump just unveiled sweeping tariffs that will reverberate through the US economy, sending inflation higher and weakening economic growth.
President Trump is set to reveal his tariff plans as part of a "Liberation Day" ceremony at the White House. Uncertainty over tariffs has roiled financial markets in recent weeks.

President Donald Trump says “Liberation Day” is coming. On Wednesday, he plans to roll out a set of tariffs that he promises will free the United States from foreign goods.
But at the heart of the decision-making is Trump himself — who has agitated for tough tariffs for more than 40 years.
It comes as the president recently announced a 25% tariff on imported vehicles and some auto parts among other tariffs.
