US Proposes Tariffs on 60 Economies Over Forced Labor Trade Practices

The U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) has proposed new tariffs on 60 economies, including India, citing concerns over forced labor trade practices. The proposed duties include a 10% rate for economies with partial or full prohibitions on forced labor imports, and 12.5% for others, with India among those identified for failing to enforce such prohibitions.
