Switzerland Slammed With 39% Tariff Rate in Trump Trade Blitz

The tariff hike is seen as a continuation of the Trump administration's aggressive trade policies, which have already led to tensions with several other countries. The impact of this decision on the Swiss economy and the broader global trade landscape remains to be seen, as countries grapple with the ongoing trade disputes and their potential consequences.
