Trump's New Tariffs Impact on Tunisia
The United States has imposed new tariffs ranging from 10% to 12.5% on approximately 60 countries that represent 99% of its imports. This move aims to reduce the entry of products linked to forced labor into the American market, as part of a trade protection policy and a tool of political and economic pressure. Although Tunisia is not among the directly targeted countries, the impact of these measures may indirectly affect it, especially through a decline in demand for European exports connected to global supply chains upon which Tunisia depends—particularly in the automotive components, electrical, electronic, and textile industries. Additionally, disruptions in global trade could lead to higher costs for raw materials and transportation, which may contribute to inflation in Tunisia. At the same time, these challenges could present an opportunity for Tunisia to strengthen its position as an industrial hub close to Europe, provided it improves the investment climate and accelerates government procedures. This could enable Tunisia to attract new investments and benefit from shifts in international trade dynamics.
