Trump to Announce New Tariffs Amid Potential Trade Agreements

According to BlockBeats, U.S. President Donald Trump plans to announce new tariffs in the coming days. He expressed openness to negotiating tariff agreements with other countries, suggesting that any deals would be made after the new tariffs take effect on April 2. During an interview aboard Air Force One en route to Florida, Trump was asked about the possibility of discussing reduced tariffs with countries like the United Kingdom. He stated, "If we can get something from this deal, it's possible—but you know, we've been taken advantage of for 40 years, even longer. That's not going to happen anymore. But yes, I would certainly be open to it." When questioned if these discussions would occur before the April 2 tariff announcement, he replied, "No. Most likely later." Trump also reiterated plans to announce tariffs on pharmaceuticals but declined to disclose specific rates.
