US President Donald Trump has made a demand to countries seeking to lift import tariffs, according to the leader's page on the Truth Social network.
According to the US President, many world leaders and business leaders have approached him with a request to remove tariffs.
"It’s good to see that the World knows we are serious, because WE ARE! They must right the wrongs of decades of abuse, but it won’t be easy for them. We must rebuild the Wealth of our Great Country and create true RECIPROCITY. But for those who want the easiest path: Come to America, and build in America!" wrote Trump.
Tariffs war in US
At the beginning of April, Trump imposed tariffs on imports to the US from more than 180 countries worldwide.
The tariffs seriously destabilized the situation on global stock markets.
On April 9, Trump suspended the tariffs for three months and established a uniform tariff rate of 10% for all countries, except China.
The European Union announced its intention to negotiate with the US and conclude a new tariff agreement.
In total, over 70 countries have approached the US with a request for tariff negotiations.
