Barack Obama has spoken out against US President Donald Trump’s most recent round of tariffs, stating that they are not “good for America.”
Trump, 78, declared a fresh round of tariffs on nations that import products into the US on April 2.
The Republican leader announced that a 10 percent “baseline” tax would be applied worldwide, with higher rates for the 60 nations on his list of “worst offenders.”
Vietnam (46 percent), South Africa (30 percent), and Japan (24 percent) are among the nations with high customs duties.
Former US President Barack Obama, 63, has now voiced his opinion on what Trump called “Liberation Day” for the US, which was announced during a White House Rose Garden Address.
On Thursday, April 4, the Democrat, who was the 44th President of the United States from 2009 to 2017, made an appearance at Hamilton College in Clinton, New York, to talk about the responsibilities.
Obama seized the opportunity to address America’s gun regulations while confirming that he was currently working on the second half of his presidential memoirs during his conversation with College President Steven Tepper.
