US President Donald Trump blasted a US appeals court ruling that said tariffs imposed under his administration were illegal.
"All tariffs are still in effect! Today a Highly Partisan Appeals Court incorrectly said that our Tariffs should be removed, but they know the United States of America will win in the end," Trump wrote on Truth Social.
He said that if the tariffs were removed, it would be a "total disaster' for the United States.
The US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on Friday upheld a decision by a lower court that said Trump overstepped his authority when he used a 1977 law, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), to impose most of his tariffs. The tariffs will remain in effect until mid-October, to give the Trump administration time to request that the court ruling be reversed by the Supreme Court.

US President Donald Trump said all tariffs previously imposed by him on imports from other countries remain in force, despite a ruling by an appeals court that deemed many of these tariffs illegal.
ReplyDelete"All tariffs are still in effect," the US leader wrote on his social media Truth Social, TASS reported.
"Today a highly partisan appeals court incorrectly said that our tariffs should be removed, but they (judges) know the United States of America will win in the end. If these tariffs ever went away, it would be a total disaster for the country. It would make us financially weak, and we have to be strong."
"The USA will no longer tolerate enormous trade deficits and unfair tariffs and non tariff trade barriers imposed by other countries, friend or foe," Trump assured. "If allowed to stand, this decision would literally destroy the United States of America," the US leader explained. He noted that his administration would challenge the mentioned decision in the US Supreme Court.
