Trump Plans to Implement More Tariffs Despite Rising Inflation

UNITED STATES, JUL 16 – President Trump plans tariffs on pharmaceutical imports that could rise to 200% after a year-long grace period to encourage domestic manufacturing, impacting drug prices and supply chains.

  • On July 16, 2025, President Donald Trump announced plans to impose tariffs on pharmaceutical imports at the end of the month, noting a `similar` schedule for semiconductors.
  • A review under the Trade Expansion Act revealed that investigations under Section 232 prompted the tariff proposal as a national security measure, and during a cabinet meeting earlier this month Trump said rates could reach 200%.
  • On the White House's Rapid Response account, President Donald Trump said tariffs would start low with a year-long grace period before rising sharply, urging companies to move back to America.

  • Looking ahead to next month, Trump said he could finalize two or three trade deals, with an India agreement likely, while full U.S. pharmaceutical supply chain rebuilding could take years.
