US unveils new tariffs on 60 trade partners, including Pakistan, over forced labour concerns

The US has introduced new tariffs on 60 countries, including Pakistan, India, China, and the EU, due to concerns about forced labor practices. These measures replace an earlier global duty that was set to expire, with the tariffs ranging from 10% to 12.5%. This move highlights the US's commitment to enforcing its long-standing ban on forced labor imports, putting pressure on other countries to follow suit. The implications of this could reshape trade relationships and labor standards globally, particularly for countries with significant forced labor issues.
