With the July 9 deadline looming for the U.S. to decide on renewing its 'reciprocal tariff' policy, countries worldwide are scrambling to negotiate terms amid rising trade tensions. The policy, which temporarily suspended tariffs on certain imports, could reshape global trade dynamics if not extended—or spark a new wave of economic friction.
A recent CGTN poll is inviting global audiences to weigh in on the debate. The survey asks participants whether they support the U.S. approach, how tariffs impact their local economies, and what solutions could ease cross-border trade strains. Think of it as a real-time pulse check on one of the world's most pressing economic issues! 💬📊
Experts warn that letting the tariff suspension expire could disrupt supply chains, inflate consumer prices, and strain diplomatic ties. Meanwhile, the Port of Los Angeles—a critical hub for U.S.-Asia trade—is already bracing for potential delays, as seen in a recent snapshot of stacked shipping containers. 📦🚢
