NEW YORK, July 16 (Xinhua) — The United States will impose a flat tariff of just over 10 percent on smaller countries, including many in Africa and the Caribbean, US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday.
“We’ll probably put a single tariff on all of them,” he told reporters at Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland. That could be a duty of just over 10 percent on goods from at least 100 countries, the Associated Press quoted the president as saying.
Earlier in the day, Trump announced a deal with Jakarta in which Indonesia will pay a 19 percent tariff on all goods exported to the United States, while American exports to the Asian country will be exempt from tariff and non-tariff barriers.
The White House chief recently sent letters to leaders of several countries, including a number of major US trading partners, announcing 20-50 percent tariffs effective August 1.
D. Trump also said that he could announce tariffs on pharmaceuticals at the end of July. –0–
