Washington: US President Donald Trump has accused the Biden administration of corrupting government agencies and using the Justice Department as a tool for political vendetta.
Speaking to the media in Washington, Trump said that during the Biden era, federal employees are receiving salaries while sitting at home and unnecessary expenses worth one trillion dollars are being cut.
Trump added that tariffs on oil and gas will be implemented from February 18, and the same tariffs will be applied to the European Union.
According to him, tariffs will also be imposed on steel, aluminum and copper, as a result of which China, Canada and Mexico will not be able to do anything.
President Trump has announced tariffs of up to 25 percent on goods imported from China, Canada and Mexico, while a 10 percent tax has been imposed on Canadian oil. In addition, a 10 percent tax will also be imposed on goods coming from China.
The White House has clarified that preparations have been completed to deal with any country that retaliates in response to these tariffs.
