🟠 Washington reopens the trade front

📌The Donald Trump administration has launched a Section 301 trade investigation into 16 major partners, including China, the EU, Japan, India, Mexico, and Vietnam.
📌 The investigation focuses on excess production capacity—especially in major export industries. If the findings are unfavorable, Washington could impose new tariffs as early as summer.
📌 This move is seen as a way for the U.S. to reassert trade pressure after the Supreme Court of the United States rejected the global tariff program previously proposed by the Trump administration.
