The United States is preparing additional tariffs covering dozens of countries as President Donald Trump’s temporary “global levy” of 10% approaches its scheduled expiry this week, according to trade officials. Jamieson Greer, a U.S. trade envoy, says the government is acting soon and is putting in place new tariff measures that will target a wide range of economies. The announcements come ahead of the end of the 10% levy’s timeframe, indicating a transition from the temporary across-the-board charge to a new set of country-specific or sector-specific trade actions.
Both reports frame the development as part of a broader U.S. tariff strategy tied to the expiration of the temporary measure, but they provide limited detail on the specific countries, tariff rates, or the legal and administrative mechanisms involved in the “new tariffs.” The coverage focuses on timing and scope—U.S. officials say the measures will affect dozens of countries—while underscoring that the change is linked to the expiry of the current 10% global levy.
