For Ukraine, ballistic missiles; for Europe, certainly, the trade tariffs. The New World took birth to create a new economic system based on import tariffs.

   President Donald Trump signs the One Big               Beautiful Bill into law on 4 July, 2025 Bargaining Deals in The New World Deepak Razdan Saturday, 5 July, 2025 US President Donald Trump’s 90-day deadline for trade tariff deals ends soon. The time-span till 9th July was expected to yield a deal a day. That has not happened. The New World wants to push ahead, the Old World goes slow. The US has so far reached agreements with the United Kingdom, Vietnam and China. Canada and the European Union (EU) had often talked of countermeasures if there were heavy US tariffs on their goods. Mr Trump warned the two they could face really tough tariffs, if they did not behave. The two show no signs of weakness. Besides, trade deals must involve hard bargaining. In the past some days and weeks, Mr Trump’s Administration had heavy business. It was campaigning hard to secure Congressional approval for his ‘One Big Beautiful Bill.’ Th...
