Neden Önemli?
The US has been increasingly using trade policies to address global labour practices.
Washington said the proposed tariffs, which range from 10 per cent to 12.5 per cent, were aimed at countries that it assessed had not done enough to tackle the problem. The tariffs have not yet taken effect. The listed economies that have imposed forced-labour import bans, partial restrictions or binding commitments to strengthen enforcement would face a lower rate, while those without such measures could face a higher rate. The relevant governments can challenge their inclusion before a July 6 deadline through written comments, with the US scheduled to hold hearings from July 7, after which it will reach a decision.
