US President Donald Trump announced plans to collect customs duties on Wednesday, saying, “Our country has been looted, pulled, raped, and looted” by other countries. The aggressive discourse came as Trump showed a willingness to dismantle a global economic system that the United States helped build after World War II. Trump said the United States will impose a 34 % tax on imports from China, 20 % tax on imports from the European Union, 25 % on South Korea, 24 % in Japan and 32 % in Taiwan.
