Trump says he will raise global tariff rate from 10% to 15%

Trump says he will raise the temporary global tariff rate on imported goods from 10% to 15%. He framed the move as a response to the Supreme Court ruling against tariffs imposed under a national emergency law. The announcement follows judicial pushback on the legality and scope of such emergency tariffs.
