Trump announces new 10% global tariff

Donald Trump says the US Supreme Court’s decision to strike down his sweeping tariffs is “deeply disappointing” as he announces a new 10% levy on global imports .

With a 6-3 majority, the court ruled Trump exceeded his authority when he imposed tariffs via a law reserved for national emergencies – they say he needs congressional approval to impose taxes on imports.

As expected, Trump says he will attempt to reimpose tariffs – but he’s yet to spell out the detail, writes our North America correspondent.
