00:00In response to the Supreme Court's decision, the U.S. President announced the imposition of a global tariff of 10
00:05percent, unleashing a new trade offensive against the world.
00:09According to Trump, the measure is based on Section 122, a legal power that allows Washington to apply tariffs of
00:15up to 15 percent for a period of 150 days, on the grounds of imbalances in payments.
00:21Trump warned that he will use Section 301 to investigate what he considers unfair trade practices, a mechanism he has
00:28used in the past to impose unilateral tariffs on China.
00:31This unilateral decision foreshadows a new escalation of tensions at the global level and reaffirms Trump's protectionist agenda, which prioritizes
00:39economic confrontation over dialogue and international cooperation.
