The Trump administration is proposing double-digit tariffs on products from dozens of major U.S. trading partners after an investigation into imports of goods allegedly made with forced labor. Under the proposal released in Washington late Tuesday, 16 economies — including Canada, Mexico, the European Union, Taiwan and the United Kingdom — would face 10% levies for allegedly failing to enforce bans on forced labor. Dozens of other countries — including China, Japan, India, South Korea and Switzerland — would be hit with 12.5% import taxes. The tariffs are part of President Donald Trump’s effort to replace revenue lost when the U.S. Supreme Court in February struck down sweeping global tariffs he’d imposed last year.
