WASHINGTON: The United States said Thursday that it would impose new tariffs on many trading partners over forced labor concerns, replacing an expiring duty rolled out by President Donald Trump earlier this year.


The levies, which take effect on Friday, range from 10% to 12.5%. Products already facing sector-specific duties will not be affected.
