Pollak after last night’s focus on SA in updated Trump Tariffs: 30% + 10% BRICS surcharge from 1 Aug
South Africa was singled out for special mention by US President Donald Trump in the White House last night when he announced an extension of its ‘reciprocal’ tariffs deadline by three weeks. Trump said SA goods would be hit by a 30% tariff from 1 August. Breitbart senior editor Joel Pollak, whose knowledge of both countries saw him widely tipped to be Trump’s SA ambassador, provides context. He spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.
