Trump 'perfecting' new tariffs as nervous world braces
Trump has promised to be "very kind" when he unveils the so-called reciprocal tariffs on Wednesday, but uncertainty reigned over which countries would be targeted and by how much.
His plan has prompted vows of retaliation from major economies including the European Union on Canada and fears that it could unleash a recession at home and abroad.
The White House said Trump, who will announce the tariffs in the Rose Garden at 2000 GMT on Wednesday, had "made a decision" but was still putting the finishing touches on the measures.
