Mexico's president immediately ordered retaliatory tariffs and Canada's prime minister said the country would put matching 25% tariffs on up to USD 155 billion in US imports.

Government ministries and departments are examining different scenarios after US President-elect Donald Trump's open threat to impose reciprocal tariffs on Indian goods
Imposing reciprocal duties violates global trade rules but one has to follow a "wait and wait" approach to US President-elect Donald Trump's remarks on imposing reciprocal tariffs, a senior official said on Wednesday. US President-elect Donald Trump has said that India charges a lot of tariffs, reiterating his intention to impose reciprocal tariffs in retaliation for what New Delhi will impose on the import of certain American products.
