Donald Trump Takes Tough Stance on Tariffs

Since Donald Trump’s election, the global economy has been shaken by his radical decisions regarding international trade, especially the increase in tariffs.

One of the most significant decisions was the implementation of additional taxes of 25% on imports of steel and aluminum.

This measure, although intended to support American industries, has direct consequences for international companies like Coca-Cola.

The American beverage giant, which imports a significant portion of its aluminum for its cans from Canada, is facing increased production costs.

In response, the company has indicated that it may switch from aluminum to plastic in its packaging, a solution that could alleviate costs but raises serious environmental concerns.

Is Coca-Cola’s Price About to Soar?

Trump’s decision doesn’t stop there, as tariffs have been extended to all products imported into the United States, with specific increases for European products.

This new policy could significantly affect French consumers, particularly concerning everyday products like Coca-Cola.

Indeed, such an increase in tariffs will lead to higher costs for producers, who will be forced to pass these expenses onto product prices.

If the situation persists, consumers could face widespread inflation, impacting sectors such as wine, cosmetics, and even the automotive industry.

European governments, along with representatives like François Bayrou and Emmanuel Macron, have condemned this measure, labeling it as “catastrophic” for the global economy. Further developments to follow!
