President Donald Trump announced new tariffs on six additional countries Tuesday via a series of posts on Truth Social, as part of his broader trade pressure campaign. The letters, addressed to the heads of state, outlined specific tariff rates on goods exported to the United States.

The nations and their corresponding tariffs are:

  • Algeria: 30%
  • Brunei: 25%
  • Iraq: 30%
  • Libya: 30%
  • Moldova: 25%
  • Philippines: 25%

These announcements follow Trump’s Monday promise to release trade actions affecting “a minimum of 7 countries” this week. As of Tuesday afternoon, only six letters have been posted publicly, though additional statements may follow.

The latest wave of tariffs builds on the president’s efforts to rebalance global trade, with Trump warning that tariffs will take effect August 1, 2025, and there will be no delays or extensions.
