A US appeals court on Thursday reinstated many of President Donald Trump’s tariffs, the day after another court blocked them.
The move puts a pause on a trade court’s ruling that Trump exceeded his authority in imposing his “Liberation Day” tariff regime, adding a jolt of legal chaos to the uncertainty surrounding Trump’s global trade war.
Trump’s advisers, who had condemned the tariff block as a “judicial coup” celebrated the reprieve, but the possibility of the initial ruling being reinstated weighs heavily on the White House.
Despite the setback, Trump will likely be undeterred in his aim to “rewrite the rules of global commerce in America’s favor,” The Wall Street Journal wrote.
