📈 U.S. Raises China Tariffs to 145% Amid Trade Tensions

The U.S. has hiked tariffs on Chinese goods to 145%, adding a new 125% levy to the earlier 20% duty over fentanyl concerns. President Trump warned his "reciprocal tariffs" plan will resume after a 90-day pause if trade deficits persist.
China hit back with 84% tariffs, accused the U.S. of bullying, and refused talks. While China shifts focus to Europe, India declined cooperation, Russia remains unaffected, and Taiwan, facing a 32% tariff, is preparing for talks with the U.S.
