President Donald Trump has called it 'Liberation Day' - but world leaders say his new round of tariffs is likely to trigger a global trade war.
The White House announced the tariff rates will vary depending on the country - but nearly nations will ultimately be affected.
The move has led to fury in China, dismay in Europe and confusion around the globe.
Trump says the tariffs are payback- a way to free the US from reliance on foreign goods and boost manufacturing at home.
But for now, they are also fuelling fears of a recession and making global markets nervous.
So how will the world economy manage?
And will trading partners drift further away from America and build alliances elsewhere?
