U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a stark warning to the global trading system, signaling a 25&#37 tariff on any country that continues commercial ties with Iran. The threat, described by Trump as “final,” has sent ripples through international markets despite the absence of a formal executive order or legal framework. Washington has indicated that trade penalties could be imposed immediately on nations doing business with Tehran, even as questions mount over how such a policy would be enforced. Analysts note that the economic burden of the proposed tariffs would largely fall on U.S. importers, given Iran’s long-standing status under international sanctions. WATCH 

A major breakthrough in U.S.-South Korea trade relations has been announced following intense discussions at the APEC Summit in San Francisco. Both sides reached an understanding to slash U.S. auto tariffs on South Korean imports from 25&#37 to 15&#37, marking a significant shift in Washington’s trade policy. Lee Jae Myung’s top aide confirmed the development, stating that Seoul will invest nearly $350 billion in the United States, including $200 billion in cash commitments and $150 billion toward shipbuilding and industrial cooperation.
