The former American president Donald Trump announced plans to impose a 25% tariff on imports of cars, medicines, and electronic chips, in the event that he wins the upcoming presidential election.

Trump stated during a campaign rally that this move aims to boost domestic manufacturing and reduce reliance on imports, especially from China. He pointed out that imposing tariffs would contribute to supporting the American economy and creating more job opportunities.

These statements come as part of his election promises to adopt protectionist policies to safeguard national industries, a approach he took during his previous presidency. No official reactions have yet been issued from the affected companies or the governments concerned about these potential measures.
