The Impact of Tariffs and Trade Wars on the US Economy and the Dollar
"No, we're not backing down", Trump told reporters following his Oval Office meeting with embattled Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu.
"We're working on NAFTA, if we're able to make a deal with Canada and Mexico on NAFTA, there will be no reason to do tariffs with Canada and Mexico", he said.
Negotiators from the three countries are scheduled to meet later on Monday in Mexico City to wrap up the latest round of talks aimed at modernising the 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement.
US Speaker of the House Paul Ryan said he was "extremely worried" about the impact of a trade war, adding that it could undermine economic gains.
Trump's remarks followed his announcement last week of the new taxes, and threats by the European Union to retaliate by taxing usa goods.
Trump added that the US has been "ripped off by virtually every country in the world, whether its friend or enemy". Example, when we are down $100 billion with a certain country and they get cute, don't trade anymore-we win big. Lindsey Graham said the sweeping action would let China "off the hook". "How previous presidents allowed that to happen is disgraceful, but we're going to take care of it".
"We are looking at possibilities to retaliate, meaning we will also put taxes or tariffs on USA imports to the European Union", she said. But by midday, Trump was sticking by plans to increase them.

Saint Mary's lacked high-quality victories, but it's tough on a West Coast Conference team to get those opportunities. Instead, the Spartans face a short trip and a friendly crowd as they look to make good on this season's expectations.
The across-the-board action would break with the recommendation of the Pentagon, which pushed for more targeted tariffs on metals imports from countries like China and warned that a wide-ranging move would jeopardise national security partnerships.
One of President Donald Trump's chief trade policy architects offered a sobering statistic on Monday to critics railing against the chief executive's new proposed tariffs on steel and aluminum imports.
The Pentagon has said they don't want to see blanket tariffs angering allies whose cooperation is needed for national security.
"Outside of the U.S. the sense that I have at the moment is that people are re-embracing free trade after a bit of a wobble - partly driven by the result of several elections", he told a business conference in Sydney. Trump on Friday embraced that prospect, tweeting that "trade wars are good".
A new study says the tariffs could cost over 179,000 in U.S. Trump said the U.S. had been "ripped off" by other countries on trade. He said the European Union could answer by taxing American goods including whiskey, blue jeans, and Harley-Davidson motorcycles.
The president threatened NAFTA trade partners Canada and Mexico in a tweet, saying the tariffs would "only come off if [a] new and fair" multilateral trade deal was signed.
Indeed, Chinese manufacturer JinkoSolar announced after the tariff decision that it would build an advanced solar manufacturing facility in the United States.
