00:00The tariff war is back. And this time, Trump is moving fast.
00:03The U.S. has opened two major trade probes that could bring a new wave of tariffs by summer.
00:09One targets excess industrial capacity in 16 big trading partners, including China, the European Union, India, Japan, South Korea and
00:17Mexico.
00:18The second probe goes even further. It could block imports tied to forced labor from more than 60 countries.
00:24This comes after the U.S. Supreme Court struck down much of Trump's earlier tariff program,
00:29weakening one of his biggest pressure tools.
00:31Now his team is rebuilding that pressure through a tougher legal path called Section 301.
00:36Officials say the target is unfair trade.
00:39That includes cheap state-backed production, trade surpluses, weak labor standards, and forced labor in supply chains.
00:47China is a major focus again, especially over electric vehicles and factory overcapacity.
00:52But this new push reaches far beyond China.
00:55The message is clear.
00:57Trump still wants tariffs, still wants leverage, and still wants trade partners at the table.
01:02And by this summer, the global trade fight could get much bigger.
01:05I am a natural president of the United States but the other one.
01:06No.
