  A recent announcement could result in President Trump raising South Korea tariffs to 25%. In a January 26 social media post, Trump threatened to increase South Korea’s import levies from 15% to 25%. The president further stated that the increase will apply to imports, including automobiles, lumber, and pharmaceutical products. Goods subject to Trump’s original baseline reciprocal tariffs will also be affected by the duties.  The US initially lowered tariffs on South Korean goods from 25% to 15% as part of a trade deal in July 2025 . South Korean officials were caught off guard by the announcement and are planning to speak with the US about the issue. Why Is Trump Raising Tariffs on South Korean Imports?

In 2025, both countries agreed on a trade and investment framework valued at approximately $350 billion. The deal included the US lowering tariffs on specific Korean imp...

  A recent announcement has President Trump threatening a new 25% Tariff on Iran’s trading partners. On January 12, the President announced the levies on a social media post. Notable countries that the tariff could affect include India, China, the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, and others. Although the White House has not published final guidelines, Trump noted that the decision was “final and conclusive”. With the Supreme Court currently examining the legality of other tariffs issued by Trump, this announcement further heightens uncertainty. Why Is Trump Threatening A New 25% Tariff on Iran’s Trading Partners? The primary reason for the 25% tariff is ongoing geopolitical tensions. Ongoing protests in Iran resulted in casualties of over 2000 people, and the tariff is a pressure against it. Trump recently stated, “If Tehran violently kills peaceful protesters, they will come to their rescue.” The president issued similar “secondary tariffs” last year for countries that buy oil from V...

As International shipping continues to shift, the industry can soon see Canada leading the BRICS economy. BRICS is a group of emerging economies comprising ten countries, including Brazil, China, Russia, India, and others. Over the last few years, the BRICS market has expanded, now accounting for 40% of the global economy. Although Canada is not a part of BRICS, Canada’s largest trading partners are in the group, including China and India.

With Canada as a major trader in BRICS, the country could soon account for 44% of the world’s grain consumption. Canadian exporters also benefit from fast-growing consumer markets in energy, critical minerals, and...

Some of these products include upholstered furniture, kitchen cabinets, and vanities. In September 2025, Trump imposed a 25% tariff on these goods and planned to raise it to 50% in 2026. The White House recently signed an order postponing the increase, which took effect on January 1, 2026. This delay is part of a rollercoaster of   tariff enforcement   and reversals that has impacted the US in 2025. Why Is The White House delaying tariffs?

A significant issue was national security concerns related to the importation of wood products. The president initially imposed the 25% tariffs after a Section 232 investigation found that an overreliance on for...
