00:00Before watching the video, let me remind you that there is more content on the Hotpoint website.
00:04After President Trump took office, the U.S. has been constantly swinging tariffs.
00:08IMF, the International Monetary Fund, expects the U.S. economy to slow down this year.
00:13IMF spokesman Kozak pointed out that since the U.S. has announced major policy changes,
00:19the data shows that this year's U.S. economic performance will slow down compared to last year's strong level.
00:25However, IMF believes that the U.S. economy will not decline.
00:30At the same time, Trump's increase in tariffs continues to spread.
00:34After Trump announced on Wednesday that all imported cars and parts in the U.S. would receive a 25% tariff,
00:41Germany and Japan, the major car suppliers in the U.S., expressed dissatisfaction.
00:46German Economic Minister Roberts emphasized that the EU must respond with a strong position,
00:51and clearly stated that it would not give in to the U.S.
00:54While Japan believes that the U.S.-Japan economic relations may be greatly affected,
00:58the Japanese officials have already asked the U.S. for a tariff exemption.
01:03Not only did the countries respond strongly to the increase in tariffs on imported cars,
01:08but it also made Trump's loyal supporter Musk unable to sit still.
01:11Although the outside world analyzes that in the U.S. there are large factories,
01:14Tesla, the global billionaire electric car brand owned by Musk,
01:18may be one of the few winners in this policy.
01:23However, Musk claimed on social media that Tesla is not harmless,
01:29because it will affect the parts prices of Tesla cars from other countries.
01:35U.S. President Trump announced that the increase in tariffs on imported cars will cause global concern.
01:41Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Guo Jiakun criticized the U.S. in a press conference yesterday
01:45for violating the rules of the WTO,
01:48which will not only damage the common interests of multilateral trade and the people of all countries,
01:52but also be useless in solving their own problems.
01:55Guo Jiakun once again emphasized that there will be no winners in the tariff war.
01:58There is no winner in the trade war and the tariff war.
02:01No country's development and prosperity is achieved by increasing tariffs.
02:06Canada, one of the major U.S. car suppliers,
02:09is also angry at Trump's increase in tariffs.
02:12Canadian Prime Minister Kamala Harris said
02:14that the era of close relations between Canada and the U.S. is over.
02:17She also predicted that Canada would counter the increase in tariffs on U.S. cars.
02:23We will fight the U.S. tariffs with retaliatory trade actions of our own
02:28that will have maximum impact in the United States and minimum impacts here in Canada.
02:33We will protect our workers and our industries during this difficult period.
02:39But above all, we will build a new Canadian economy.
02:43We will build Canada strong.
02:45However, Trump warned via social media that
02:48if Canada and the EU join forces to damage the U.S. economy,
02:52the U.S. will not give up easily
02:55and will impose large-scale tariffs on these countries.
