US trade taxes on Canada and Mexico have been paused for 30 days.

US President Donald Trump’s punishing tariffs on goods from Canada and Mexico are on hold for a month, averting for now a devastating trade war among North America’s allies.

But US levies on Chinese products have gone into effect – and Beijing has hit back with duties of its own. It accuses Washington of unilateralism and has filed a complaint with the World Trade Organization.

President Trump says the United States has been ripped off by “every country in the world”.

Are tariffs the answer? And at what cost?
