Regarding the additional U.S. tariffs, President Trump announced the signing of a new comprehensive tariff agreement with Japan on September 4, and automobile tariffs have been reduced from 27.5% to 15% since September 16. On September 24, it was announced that the tax rate for the European Union (EU) would also be reduced to 15%, with the rate to be applied retroactively to August 1. On the other hand, South Korea's negotiations on investment in the U.S. have been difficult and no agreement has yet been reached.
Mexico will reportedly raise tariffs up to 50% on imports from China, India, South Korea, and other countries with which it has no trade agreements, with automobiles, steel, and aluminum among the targeted items. China urged reconsideration and warned against investment and project cancellations, while South Korea announced that it would work with domestic manufacturers to mitigate risks. Canada is also reported to be reconsidering a 100% tariff on Chinese EVs. With the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) due for review in 2026, and the Trump administration imposing additional tariffs on both countries, attention will be focused on the outcome of negotiations, including future cooperation among the three countries and responses to countries outside the region.
