$33 trillion in global trade at risk because of Trump

Trump is capable of destroying the global economy

Foreign economists are sounding the alarm as US leader Donald Trump plans to impose the largest trade restrictions in 100 years. This decision will be a powerful blow to the global trading system and will provoke many serious problems.

Points of attention

  • The global trade policy uncertainty index has reached its highest level since 2009, indicating the heightened risk and instability associated with Trump's trade decisions.
  • Under the maximum approach, the average tariff rates in the US could increase to 28 percentage points, resulting in a significant decline in GDP and a notable increase in prices over the next few years.

Trump is capable of destroying the global economy

A statement on this occasion was made by Nomura Holdings Inc. Chief Economist Rob Subbaraman.

He points out that the lack of details about the structure, size and purpose of the tariffs has left the world "flying blind".

According to the expert, about $33 trillion in global trade could be affected by Donald Trump.

It is also impossible to ignore the fact that the global trade policy uncertainty index soared to its highest level since 2009 on April 1.

A group of economists from Goldman Sachs Group Inc. has suggested that the average U.S. tariff for all countries in 2025 will likely increase by 15 percentage points.

There is a high probability that this, in turn, will trigger an increase in core inflation, weakening growth and increasing the risk of recession.

Under the maximum approach, average tariff rates in the US would increase to 28 percentage points, leading to a 4% decline in US GDP and an increase in prices of almost 2.5% over two to three years.

500% duties and more. The US has developed a new plan to take revenge on Russia

Russia faces even greater sanctions
Source:  online.ua

US senators have introduced a bipartisan bill to impose sanctions on the aggressor country of Russia in the event that dictator Vladimir Putin thwarts US President Donald Trump's peaceful efforts to end the war against Ukraine.

Points of attention

  • The dominant view in the US Senate is that Russia is the aggressor, and tough sanctions, such as tariffs on countries purchasing Russian products, are necessary to address the ongoing conflict.
  • American leader Donald Trump has shown irritation over Putin's delay in ceasefire negotiations, indicating growing tension between the US and Russia.

Russia faces even greater sanctions

Journalists point out that half of the US Senate, led by Republican Lindsey Graham and Democrat Richard Blumenthal, worked on the new sanctions plan.

According to the senators, these restrictions would be put into effect if peace talks fail or an agreement is reached but Russia violates it.

According to the latest data, this primarily concerns 500 percent duties on imported goods from countries that purchase Russian oil, gas, uranium, and other Russian products.

The dominant view in the US Senate is that Russia is the aggressor, and that this terrible war and Putin's aggression must stop now and be restrained in the future, the authors of the new plan emphasized.

According to the senators, sanctions against the aggressor country Russia will include the introduction of tariffs on countries that purchase Russian oil, gas, uranium, and other products.

They are tough for a reason, American politicians noted.

By the way, recently, American leader Donald Trump for the first time expressed irritation over dictator Putin's delay in ceasefire negotiations.
