In a statement containing his characteristic bravado, US President Donald Trump hinted at potential future increases in tariffs against Mexico and Canada, according to a Sunday report by Fox News. Trump alleged that the United States has long been exploited by the global community. "I think [the business community could see clarity on tariffs]," Trump remarked, addressing corporate leaders’ concerns about the need for predictable capital expenditure planning. However, as he noted, "the tariffs could go up as time goes by, and they may go up…," emphasizing that this adjustment is a reaction to perceived decades of economic ‘ripping off’ of America.
