Filtering by entity: Algeria | Clear Filter
Summary:A letter from The White House to the President of Algeria announces a new policy to impose a 30% tariff on all Algerian products imported into the United States starting August 1, 2025. This action is taken to address a significant and persistent trade deficit, which is described as a major threat to the U.S. economy and national security. The letter states that the 30% tariff is insufficient to eliminate the deficit, warns that any retaliatory tariffs from Algeria will result in an additional 30% tariff from the U.S., and encourages Algerian companies to build or manufacture products within the United States to avoid tariffs.
Sentiment:Assertive
Key Claims:
- The United States has a significant and persistent trade deficit with Algeria.
- This trade deficit is attributed to Algeria's 'Non-Tariff, Policies and Trade Barriers'.

- Goods transshipped to evade higher tariffs will be subjected to the higher tariff rate.
- The 30% tariff is less than what is required to eliminate the existing trade disparity.
- Algerian companies or entities that establish manufacturing or production within the United States will not be subject to these tariffs.
- Any decision by Algeria to raise its own tariffs will result in an additional 30% tariff imposed by the U.S. on top of the existing 30%.
- The trade deficit is considered a 'major threat to our Economy and, indeed, our National Security!'.
- The U.S. commits to quick and professional approval processes for Algerian companies wishing to manufacture in the U.S.
