Assessing impact of US Supreme Court ruling on Trump's tariffs: China

China on Monday said it is conducting a comprehensive assessment of the impact of the US Supreme Court's ruling against global tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump under an emergency powers law. The Chinese Ministry of Commerce said it has noted the Supreme Court's decision declaring illegal the US government's imposition of tariffs on trading partners under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) and is evaluating its relevant content and implications. Beijing's reaction came ahead of Trump's planned visit to China from March 31 to April 2 for talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping. On Sunday, US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said he did not expect the ruling to impact Washington's talks with China. "The purpose of this meeting with President Xi is not to fight about trade. It's to maintain stability, make sure that the Chinese are holding up their end of our deal and buying American agricultural products and Boeings and other things," Greer told ABC ..

SC decision against Trump tariffs raises uncertainty, but markets stay calm

The Supreme Court's ruling against US President Donald Trump's tariffs has countries like China and South Korea watching for Washington's next steps, while financial markets took the news in stride. The decision announced Friday could potentially disrupt arrangements worked out in trade negotiations since Trump announced sweeping tariffs on dozens of countries in April 2025. China's Commerce Ministry said it was conducting a "comprehensive assessment of" the ruling against the tariffs Trump imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, or IEEPA. "China urges the United States to lift the unilateral tariffs imposed on trading partners," an unnamed ministry spokesman said in a statement. The statement reiterated Beijing's stance that there are no winners in a trade war and that the measures Trump had announced "not only violate international economic and trade rules but also contravene domestic laws of the United States, and are not in the interests of any party," th

'Too early to comment': FM Sitharaman on impact of US tariff changes

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Monday said it is too early to comment on the tariff changes announced by the United States and the commerce ministry is reviewing the situation. On Friday, the US Supreme Court gave a verdict against the sweeping import tariffs imposed by the Trump administration on trade partners. Following that, President Donald Trump imposed a 10 per cent tariff on all countries, including India, from February 24 for 150 days. Later on Saturday, Trump announced raising these tariffs to 15 per cent. Asked about the impact of tariff changes on the Indian economy, Sitharaman said it is a "bit too soon" to comment. "But on the trade particularly, aside from the Indian economy in general, the commerce ministry is reviewing the situation. The delegation will have to take a call on when they are going to go for further negotiations. So it's a bit too early for me (to comment)," Sitharaman said. On Sunday, India and the US decided to reschedule the proposed meetin
