Washington applies tariffs on Chinese drones
The United States announced the imposition of tariffs of up to 100% on the import of drones and their components, aiming to reduce reliance on Chinese suppliers and boost domestic production. This move is part of a plan to support national security and diminish China's dominance in the global drone market. The tariffs include drones weighing over 25 kilograms and thermal imaging technologies, with the implementation of tariffs on the most sensitive components deferred until February 2027. Beijing responded to the measure, expressing concerns over its negative impact on supply chains and the provision of fair competition, especially given that the Chinese company DJI controls more than two-thirds of the global market. The actions are expected to increase the cost of imported drones, providing American companies with a greater opportunity to expand their market share, though consumers and businesses may bear part of the economic burden.
