Trump undertakes more customs tariffs on steel chips, and conductors in two weeks – my country star-news.press/wp

US President Donald Trump said on Friday that he will announce the definitions of steel chips and conductors in the coming weeks.

“I will put the customs tariff next week and the next week on steel, and I would like to say, chips,” Trump told reporters on the first air force heading to a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska.

He said that the prices will be less in the beginning to allow companies to build local manufacturing in the United States, and it increased sharply at a later time, following a pattern that was also identified for definitions of medicines. He did not give any accurate rates.

He said: “I will have a rate that will be less in the beginning – which gives them a chance to come and build – and very high after a certain period of time.”

Trump said he was confident that companies would choose manufacturing in the United States, rather than facing high definitions.
