Trump targets protests as tariffs hit 100%
The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump has imposed tariffs of up to 100% on imports of drones and their accessories, including some allies, in an effort to address over-reliance on foreign sources for these systems, which pose security risks. The White House explained that the purpose of these tariffs is to protect national security, noting that the American drone industry is currently insufficient to meet domestic demand, thereby creating safety concerns. The tariffs will take effect within 21 days for sensitive drones and within 180 days for other components, aiming to reduce dependence on foreign imports and to bolster domestic manufacturing.
