India's tariff nightmare over? Court crushes Trump, but US President insists 'they'll still pay'

The White House has said U.S. trading partners that had secured tariff agreements will now face a 10% duty, after President Donald Trump signed an executive order imposing a 10% worldwide tariff and later moved to lower duties following a Supreme Court ruling that deemed the earlier tariff action illegal, as per reports. Trump had invoked the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose tariffs, but the administration has now ordered a temporary 10% ad valorem import surcharge for 150 days, with reports noting broad duties cannot be imposed on all partners without Congressional approval. In remarks cited by ANI, Trump insisted “nothing changes” and claimed “India will be paying tariffs” while the U.S. will not, saying Washington “made a deal with India.”
