South Africa FUMES at Trump’s 30% Tariff Bombshell | Will Ramaphosa Choose China Over the U.S.? [Video]

South Africa FUMES at Trump’s 30% Tariff Bombshell | Will Ramaphosa Choose China Over the U.S.?

In a major international development, former U.S. President Donald Trump has announced a sweeping 30% tariff on all goods imported from South Africa, set to begin on August 1. In a letter, Trump claimed South Africa's trade policies are "far from reciprocal," prompting this drastic measure. The White House has indicated that these tariffs could be adjusted based on the future of US-Pretoria relations. Responding swiftly, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has sharply pushed back, labelling the tariff a "contested interpretation" of the current trade reality. In a statement from his office, Ramaphosa highlighted that South Africa's average tariff on imports is a modest 7.6%, and a staggering 77% of all U.S. goods enter the country completely duty-free. He has tasked a special team to urgently engage with U.S. officials on the matter. High-stakes negotiations are already underway. U.S. and South African officials have met in Angola to discuss tariff relief and market access. South Africa's trade ministry is pushing to delay the deadline and negotiate a new framework, with sources indicating they are seeking to cap the duty rate at 10% as a potential compromise. The international community is watching closely as a Press Secretary Leavitt has hinted at a possible delay, leaving the future of US-South Africa trade hanging in the balance. #TradeWar #SouthAfrica #DonaldTrump #BreakingNews #WorldNews #USA #CyrilRamaphosa #USTrade #LatestNews #OneindiaNews #BreakingNews #30PercentTarif Also Read US President Donald Trump Announces 25% Tariffs On Japan, South Korea :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-announces-25-tariffs-on-japan-south-korea-7794333.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Calls Musk’s America Party Plan ‘Ridiculous’ And ‘Unworkable’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-calls-musk-s-america-party-plan-ridiculous-and-unworkable-7793443.html?ref=DMDesc America Will Be Richer, Safer, and Prouder: Trump As Big, Beautiful Bill Passes Congress :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-s-big-beautiful-bill-passes-congress-in-big-win-for-us-president-011-7790919.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.103~

“ACT OF GOD?”: Trump Press Sec Blames God for Deadly Texas Flood Question |FEMA Funding in Spotlight [Video]

“ACT OF GOD?”: Trump Press Sec Blames God for Deadly Texas Flood Question |FEMA Funding in Spotlight

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt is facing intense criticism after calling the deadly Texas floods—claiming over 100 lives—an “act of God.” The comment came as search and rescue efforts continued in Kerr County, where floodwaters swept through homes and Camp Mystic. Critics argue the Trump administration’s underfunding of FEMA and the National Weather Service worsened the crisis. During a press conference, reporters challenged Leavitt over delayed alerts and lack of preparedness. The backlash grows as families demand accountability for a preventable disaster. #TexasFloods #KarolineLeavitt #ActOfGod #TrumpAdministration #FEMA #NWS #FloodTragedy #BreakingNews #WeatherAlert #NaturalDisaster #WhiteHouse #FloodResponse #DisasterRelief #PublicSafety #TexasNews #EmergencyPreparedness #CampMystic #SearchAndRescue #ClimateCrisis #GuadalupeRiver #TrumpNews #LeavittBacklash #KerrCounty #WeatherWarnings #PoliticalAccountability #PressBriefing #MediaQuestioning #GovernmentResponse #ActOfGodBacklash #FloodPolitics #CrisisInTexas Also Read Trump Administration Directs California to Restrict Trans Girls from Competing in Sports Teams :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-administration-california-trans-girls-sports-011-7783503.html?ref=DMDesc World Pride 2025 Concludes with Rally Emphasising LGBTQ+ Activism Amid Political Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/world-pride-2025-defiant-politics-display-011-4175857.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Administration Halts New Student Visa Interviews While Considering Social Media Vetting :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-administration-halts-student-visa-interviews-social-media-vetting-011-4165557.html?ref=DMDesc

Trump Explodes at Reporter Over Epstein Question | MAGA Suspects Epstein ‘Client List’ Cover-Up? [Video]

Trump Explodes at Reporter Over Epstein Question | MAGA Suspects Epstein ‘Client List’ Cover-Up?

President Donald Trump lashed out at reporters during a Cabinet meeting on Tuesday, dismissing questions about the controversial Jeffrey Epstein case as a "desecration." This explosive reaction came just one day after the Justice Department, led by Trump's own Attorney General Pam Bondi, released a memo stating there was no evidence of an Epstein "client list" or that the disgraced financier was Murdered. Trump attempted to pivot the conversation to the tragic flooding in Texas, questioning why the media was still focused on "this creep" Epstein during a time of national crisis. The situation has ignited a fierce backlash within the MAGA movement. For years, Trump's most fervent supporters and allies have propagated theories about a secret "client list" that could incriminate powerful figures. Attorney General Pam Bondi, once a champion of these theories who claimed in a February Fox News interview that the list was "on my desk to review," is now facing intense criticism. Her department's memo directly contradicts the narrative she previously appeared to support. #Trump #Epstein #DOJ #PamBondi #MAGA #ClientList #JeffreyEpstein #WhiteHouse #PoliticalBacklash #ConspiracyTheories #FoxNews #AGMemo #TrumpRant #TexasFlooding #MediaStorm #EpsteinControversy #MAGAReacts #TruthMovement #JusticeDepartment #CabinetMeeting #TrumpVsMedia #DeepStateClaims #EpsteinMemos #NoClientList #NewsBreak #AGBondi #FactVsFiction #DOJReport #EpsteinCase #PoliticalFirestorm Also Read US President Donald Trump Announces 25% Tariffs On Japan, South Korea :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-announces-25-tariffs-on-japan-south-korea-7794333.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Calls Musk’s America Party Plan ‘Ridiculous’ And ‘Unworkable’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-calls-musk-s-america-party-plan-ridiculous-and-unworkable-7793443.html?ref=DMDesc America Will Be Richer, Safer, and Prouder: Trump As Big, Beautiful Bill Passes Congress :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-s-big-beautiful-bill-passes-congress-in-big-win-for-us-president-011-7790919.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.124~

Trump’s $45M Army Parade Overshadowed, Protesters Outnumber Attendees | “No Kings” Chants Echo in US

President Trump’s highly anticipated 250th Army anniversary parade in Washington D.C. was meant to be a patriotic spectacle—but it fell flat. Despite tanks, military flyovers, and millions spent, the streets were shockingly under-attended. Meanwhile, tens of thousands of anti-Trump protesters flooded cities across the U.S., chanting “No Kings” and calling for his ouster. The contrast was jarring: as Trump delivered a brief 8-minute speech calling the U.S. “the hottest country,” political violence rocked Minnesota and national tensions surged.
