US Supreme Court blocks Trump tariffs

The US Supreme Court blocks Trump tariffs in a major ruling that overturns former President Donald Trump’s global trade measures. In a decision announced on Friday, the court declared that the tariffs imposed during his administration were unlawful. The judgment marks a significant setback for Trump’s trade policy and could reshape the limits of presidential power in economic matters.

According to international news agencies, the court ruled that Donald Trump went beyond his legal authority when he imposed tariffs on several countries. The judges stated that the president does not have unlimited power to set trade duties without clear approval from Congress.

The court specifically said that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not give the president the authority to impose broad trade tariffs. This law allows certain economic actions during national emergencies, but it does not cover the type of tariffs introduced by Trump.

The former president had earlier warned that such a court ruling could create problems for the United States. The verdict may now influence future trade strategies and presidential powers.
