    I was told the factories would be coming back to the US.

      Obviously if they come there are no tariffs!

      Only for the sourced parts, or commodities, or services, or anything else that a globally integrated economy would do.

      I think it’s reasonable to speculate that additional tariffs will be implemented by the current US admin (I am assuming EU will be next).

      their main objective seem to be hurt china. keeping it in india, seeing as they are allies with the us somewhat and a bit reluctant with china, seems like something theyd wanna do for now.

        I’d not bet on that. BRICS countries are all going to have some sort of impacts.

          my country is part of BRICS and we are treading the fine line between neoliberalism and fascism. we were just forced by the US to impose 100% tax on chinese goods. just like that.

          BRICS is good and I hope it goes well, but it needs to be able to replace the dollar and cut dependency on the US already so they cant force us to do shit.
