This is Auslan90 – Deep Dive, produced by Deaf Connect, supported by SBS.
In addition to our Daily news, Deaf Connect produces ‘deep dive’ videos which provide more detail and context to the biggest stories of the week.
Today’s deep dive focuses on Tariffs and Trade War.
This week, the US implemented a 25% tariff on all steel and aluminium imports from around the world. Announced by US President Donald Trump, this move also includes additional tariffs on specific goods from countries such as China, Mexico and Canada, sparking a trade war with wide-reaching global market implications.
What are tariffs and why were they imposed? How will they affect businesses and consumers? What impact will they have on Australia’s economy and global trade? Watch the video to find out more.
