Former U.S. President Donald Trump has justified the recent market volatility sparked by newly imposed global tariffs, stating that corrective measures—though tough—are sometimes necessary. Speaking briefly aboard Air Force One, Trump assured reporters that the current downturn wasn’t orchestrated.
“I’m not trying to push anything down,” Trump emphasized. “But there are times when you need to take medicine to fix something properly.”
This statement came in the wake of significant fluctuations in global financial markets, directly linked to the White House’s decision to enforce fresh import levies of up to 50%. The sweeping tariffs introduced last week have rattled international investors and consumers, fueling concerns over continued economic instability as the new week unfolds.
Despite the backlash, Trump’s trade policy direction remains firm. U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick confirmed on Sunday that the tariffs will not be revoked any time soon. According to Lutnick, the administration sees these measures as essential for protecting American industries and reinforcing long-term economic resilience.
As global analysts and stakeholders monitor the ripple effect, this bold move underscores the evolving landscape of U.S. economic diplomacy. Whether this “medicine” will lead to recovery or further turbulence is a narrative that markets will continue to shape in the days ahead.
