USTR's Greer says Trump's latest tariffs won't have an economic impact

U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said on Monday President Donald Trump's new tariffs on 60 trading partners over their alleged lax enforcement of forced labor bans will likely not have an economic impact in part because the rates of 10% or 12.5% are similar to recent global tariff actions.

Greer told Fox News Channel's "Special Report with Brett Baier" that the new Section 301 duties are imposed on a smaller group of countries than a 10% temporary tariff, which were universal. But the agency has said they would still cover 99.4% of U.S. imports.
