Global leaders have reacted to US President Donald Trump 's sweeping tariffs with a mix of criticism, concern, and calls for calm.

As of May 7 , there is a 10% blanket tariff on all goods imported into the United States , with limited exemptions for the auto industry and some electronics.

Some countries, like China , have chosen to retaliate, which could complicate upcoming talks.

Germany 's outgoing chancellor said Trump 's decisions on tariffs are "fundamentally wrong" Australia 's prime minister said there will be no retaliatory measures against the US .

Japan urged Trump to lower tariffs against Japan in a phone call with Trump on April 7 , but said a deal "won't come overnight" Japan 's chief tariff negotiator has been visiting Washington, DC , in recent weeks .
