Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump Announces 20% Tariffs on Vietnam Imports Under New Trade Deal
Caption: Trump Announces 20% Tariffs on Vietnam Imports Under New Trade Deal. President Donald Trump has announced that the US will impose a 20% tariff on goods imported from Vietnam, down from the previously threatened 46%, as part of a new trade agreement reached after last-minute talks. The deal also grants the US full access to Vietnam's markets, meaning American exports will face zero tariffs there. However, products that are trans-shipped through Vietnam—especially those of Chinese origin—will face a steep 40% tariff. Trump officials claim nearly a third of Vietnam's exports to the US are actually Chinese goods rerouted to avoid earlier tariffs. Vietnam, now a major manufacturing hub for global brands, saw initial stock gains after the deal, but these were tempered by concerns over the still-significant 20% tariff. The Trump Organization, meanwhile, has unveiled plans to invest $1.5 billion in Vietnam, including luxury hotels and golf courses. Critics question how the new trans-shipping rules will be enforced, calling the term vague and politically charged.
