NYT article: Trump Plans Tariffs on Steel and Aluminum and Markets Slump
Trump Plans Tariffs on Steel and Aluminum and Markets Slump, https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/01/business/trump-tariffs.html, 1st March 2018
Hmm. If USA President Trump goes ahead with these tariffs, which was what he had promised in his presidential campaign, then it perhaps will be his biggest action so far, in international trade, and international relations between major countries of the world.
One wonders how the other major countries in the world will react.
It is trade that is the driving factor in international relations between major countries of the world. Shaking up trade relations through tariffs can have major repercussions to international relations.
But one has to bear in mind that that was a major part of Trump's campaign platform. So nobody should be completely surprised if Trump does levy the tariffs.
