US President Donald Trump on Wednesday warned against supplying weapons to Iran, threatening immediate 50 per cent US tariffs on any country that does so.
“A Country supplying Military Weapons to Iran will be immediately tariffed, on any and all goods sold to the United States of America, 50%, effective immediately. There will be no exclusions or exemptions,” Trump said on his Truth Social platform.
He also said in a separate post that his administration is “talking Tariff and Sanctions relief with Iran,” several hours after he announced a temporary ceasefire with Tehran, which had agreed to temporarily reopen the critical Strait of Hormuz.
