On Thursday, July 23rd, 2026, the United States announced it will impose tariffs ranging from 10% to 12.5% on imports from 60 countries. These nations account for 99% of all U.S. imports. The tariffs are being applied due to allegations that these countries have inadequately enforced bans on goods produced using forced labor.
This measure reflects the U.S. government's effort to address concerns over forced labor in global supply chains. The announcement was reported by NPR News, citing The Associated Press.
