US President Donald Trump laid out the “reciprocal tariff” rates that more than 180 countries and territories will face under his sweeping new trade policy. The announcement sent stocks tumbling and prompted investors to seek refuge in assets perceived to be safe.

European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen said that Donald Trump's decision to impose new tariffs on all goods entering the US is a major blow to the world economy. She said the new tax imports will see uncertainty spiral, causing dire consequences or millions of people around the globe.

China’s commerce ministry called for Washington to immediately cancel the tariffs, warning they endanger global economic development and would hurt US interests and international supply chains.

South Korea’s acting president, Han Duck-soo, has vowed an “all-out” response as Asia’s fourth-biggest economy reeled from Thursday’s imposition of 25% tariffs on its exports to the US. Han instructed senior officials to urgently address the crisis during an emergency meeting of his economic and security strategy taskforce, the Yonhap news agency reported.
