WTO Warns: Global Trade War Poses Threat to US and World Economies

Impact of the Trade War

The World Trade Organization (WTO) has issued a stark warning about the ongoing global trade war initiated by President Donald Trump. The organization claims that this trade conflict will significantly harm economies worldwide, particularly the United States. According to the WTO’s latest report, the repercussions of these escalating trade tensions will be felt across various sectors, leading to a slowdown in economic growth both domestically and internationally.

Global Trade War Impact

The report highlights that as tariffs increase, the cost of goods will rise, which in turn may reduce consumer spending. This situation could lead to a ripple effect, impacting global supply chains and causing uncertainty in the markets. As businesses face higher operational costs, the potential for job losses increases. The WTO emphasizes the need for countries to engage in dialogue and seek resolution to avoid further economic distress.
