President Donald Trump's move to impose or threaten massive tariffs against China, Mexico, Canada and the European Union affect about $2 trillion worth of U.S. imports and have the potential to disrupt business for major Cincinnati companies that rely on foreign goods or that sell goods overseas.

China has accused the US of making "unfounded and false allegations" about its role in the fentanyl trade to justify tariffs on Chinese products. The complaint was lodged with the World Trade Organization (WTO) one day after US President Donald Trump raised border taxes on Chinese goods by 10%,

When President Donald Trump’s administration announced it would impose 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico, the world reacted. Florida-based businesses, from those that import or export goods at Port Tampa Bay to builders in need of construction materials for ongoing real estate projects, braced for market impacts.

The U.S. trade deficit hit near-record levels in late 2024 as America's trading partners prepare to navigate Trump's tariffs.

The president will soon have to decide whether to match his trade rhetoric with action or shelve his tariff plans.
