According to the White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, Trump plans to keep these proposed tariffs in place until the impacted countries meet his requirements.

Trump has threatened still more tariffs, proposing 25% on goods from Mexico and Canada, an additional 10% on China and 25% on Colombia after that country initially refused deportation flights from the U.

The man U.S. President Donald Trump has chosen to oversee his tariff agenda says hitting Canada with 25 per cent across-the-board duties would be an emergency measure to achieve border security — and could be followed by more tariffs in the future.
