On February 10, U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order imposing a 25-percent tariff on all steel and aluminum imports. This move eliminated all exemptions, quotas, and exclusions related to these tariffs, sparking widespread attention and strong reactions across the globe.
In a recent CGTN interview, South Koreans shared their thoughts on the new policy. Some viewed the tariffs as a \"political bluff\" aimed at pressuring other nations, suggesting that the actual impact would be limited. However, others criticized the move as \"extremely unfair,\" arguing that the United States is misusing its power. These critics believe that the tariff policy will not only harm South Korea's economy but also undermine global trade relations.
