Donald Trump announced Wednesday the U.S. will place a 50 per cent tariff on copper effective Aug. 1. The U.S. president, who made the announcement on Truth Social, says the decision was made after receiving a national security assessment. “Copper is necessary for Semiconductors, Aircraft, Ships, Ammunition, Data Centers, Lithium-ion Batteries, Radar Systems, Missile Defense Systems, and even, Hypersonic Weapons, of which we are building many,” Trump wrote in a post. “Copper is the second most used material by the Department of Defense!” #news #ctvnews #copper #donladtrump #canada #usa
