In turn, Beijing slapped 84% tariffs on U.S. goods on April 9. <\/p>\n<p>White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the tariff rate would be brought down to a universal 10 percent \u2014 a significant reduction for many countries.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s new tariff policy, announced as part of what he called &#8220;Liberation Day,&#8221; imposed duties on nearly every major U.S. trading partner, including Ukraine. Kyiv was hit with a 10% tariff, compared to 20% on the EU.<\/p>\n<p>Russia, Belarus, North Korea, and Cuba were notably not included.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. president said that the tariff hike for China is &#8220;based on the lack of respect shown to the world\u2019s markets.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At some point, hopefully in the near future, China will realize that the days of ripping off the U.S.A., and other countries, is no longer sustainable or acceptable,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>According to Trump, more than 75 countries have approached the U.S. to discuss trade, trade barriers and tariffs and have not retaliated against Washington.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in the day, EU member states <a href=\"https:\/\/kyivindependent.com\/eu-set-to-greenlight-first-response-to-us-tariffs\/\">backed<\/a> the introduction of trade countermeasures against the U.S. on April 9 in response to Washington&#8217;s recent 25% tariffs on imports of steel and aluminum.<\/p>\n<p>Ukraine was hit with a 10% blanket tariff on its exports, a setback for a country at war.<\/p>\n<p>Kyiv&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/kyivindependent.com\/trump-signs-executive-order-imposing-25-tariffs-on-all-steel-aluminum-imports\/\">metallurgy sector<\/a>, a major source of Ukrainian exports to the U.S., was already impacted by a 25% tariff imposed in March.<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, Ukrainian <a href=\"https:\/\/kyivindependent.com\/tag\/trade\/\">exports<\/a> to the U.S. totaled just $874 million, while imports from the U.S. reached $3.4 billion. The overall trade volume has declined in recent years, but the <a href=\"https:\/\/kyivindependent.com\/tag\/tariffs\/\">tariffs<\/a> could deepen the imbalance, especially if they trigger broader protectionist measures globally.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"kg-card kg-bookmark-card\"><a class=\"kg-bookmark-container\" href=\"https:\/\/kyivindependent.com\/trump-spares-russia-from-tariffs-but-oil-price-plunge-could-wreck-war-economy-regardless\/\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"kg-bookmark-content\">\n<div class=\"kg-bookmark-title\">Trump didn\u2019t impose tariffs on Russia but they might be wrecking its economy regardless<\/div>\n<div class=\"kg-bookmark-description\">U.S. President Donald Trump has inadvertently hit Russia\u2019s economy after his \u201cLiberation Day\u201d tariffs caused oil prices to drop drastically on April 7, with potentially massive ramifications for the Kremlin\u2019s ability to fund its ongoing war in Ukraine.
