US Court Rules Trump's Global Tariffs Illegal, Setting Legal Showdown
A US appeal court declared former President Donald Trump's global tariffs illegal, potentially disrupting his foreign policy agenda. The ruling affects reciprocal tariffs imposed on various countries, including China, Mexico, and Canada.
Trump criticized the decision, arguing that the tariffs were necessary for national security under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. The court's decision is set to take effect on October 14, pending a possible appeal to the US Supreme Court.
Trump's Truth Social platform also faced scrutiny amid the legal battle.
