President Donald Trump made it clear Tuesday that there will be no delay in implementing the new round of tariffs set to begin August 1, emphasizing that countries hoping to avoid them must act quickly to negotiate reduced rates.
“TARIFFS WILL START BEING PAID ON AUGUST 1, 2025.,” Trump posted Tuesday on Truth Social. “There has been no change to this date, and there will be no change. In other words, all money will be due and payable starting AUGUST 1, 2025 – No extensions will be granted.”
During a Cabinet meeting later that day, Trump doubled down, saying that come August 1, the new “reciprocal” tariffs will be enforced across the board.
