    Trump announces 50% tariff on copper - concern mounts in Chile

    The 50% tariff on copper is consistent with previous tariffs imposed on steel and aluminum

    US President Donald Trump on Tuesday announced a 50% tariff on copper imports and stated he was considering a 200% tariff on pharmaceutical products if manufacturers do not move their operations to the United States. These announcements were made during a cabinet meeting, though no official executive order has yet been published on the White House website.
