President Donald Trump said Monday any nation that buys oil and gas from Venezuela will face a 25% tariff on any trade that country does with the United States.
The tariff will take place on April 2, the president said in a post on his social media platform Truth Social.
U.S. crude oil was up 77 cents, or 1.13%, at $69.05 per barrel by 10:54 am ET. Global benchmark Brent was trading 73 cents, or 1.01%, hither at $72.89 per barrel.
How many of Trump’s threatened tariffs actually go into effect? Is there a site that tabulates what he has retracted or delayed?

That’s fine on its own. The problem is that all these tariffs on various countries just makes the USA increasingly difficult to do business with. It’s worrisome if we get to the point where the global business community just bypasses the USA completely.
