The U.S. postponed a planned 50% tariff on European Union (E.U.) imports from June 1 to July 9. This likely serves as a strategic move but underscores the challenges of reaching an agreement between the U.S. and larger economic blocs. If implemented, the 50% tariff rate will bring the global tariff level to around 21%, up from the current 15%.
