How Trump Tariffs Affect African Economies

Yvonne Mhagno from Bloomberg Economics discusses how tariffs introduced by US President Donald Trump can affect African economies. On April 2, Trump imposed tariffs that will see at least a 10% tariff on all exporters to the US, with even higher duties on some 60 nations. The tiny southern African mountain kingdom of Lesotho was hit with a 50% levy. South Africa was also among the nations that will receive a charge above 10%, with a 30% levy on products exported to the US.
