"President Trump places new tariff threat on 60 trade partners
The Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) published a 'comprehensive report' detailing its accusations as it proposes tariffs on 'all products of the investigated economies'.
The ruling covers a wide range of goods including apparel, footwear and textiles.
A total of 60 countries are accused of failing to enforce laws that prohibit goods made with forced labour, including trading partners such as China, Vietnam, Mexico, India, the UK, Canada and the European Union.
The USTR says the listed countries' 'failure to impose and effectively enforce' rules on forced labour is creating 'unfair competition' for US commerce.
The update follows shortly after the import taxes announced by President Trump in February 2026 were struck down by the US Supreme Court.
US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer commented: “The failure of our most important trading partners to address the importation of goods made with forced labour is unacceptable. This creates a dynamic where American workers are forced to compete globally on an uneven playing field."
