    There is no such thing as free tariffs, no Asian country has free tariffs, they want to ship for free but they have huge tariffs on many imported products, some 400%.
    SO, there is a good reason for Trump's tariffs, USA manufacturing has been devastated over the last 30 years by factories closing and moving to China. The Chinese are able to circumvent USA tariffs previously by shipping via other Asian countries.
    These Asian countries charge huge tariffs on USA made products. ie cars 300%, wine 400%. Cambodia and Vietnam are already dropping tariffs on goods from the USA

    While China has long been Trump’s top trade target, Cambodia and Vietnam are now unexpectedly in the crosshairs—and the White House says Beijing is to blame.

    Cambodia and Vietnam: China’s secret weapons?


    The White House accuses Beijing of using these countries as front lines in a massive tariff-dodging operation, funneling goods through them to avoid US penalties. Now, Trump is hitting back harder than ever.


    A senior administration official told Nikkei Asia that both countries are acting as transshipment hubs—meaning China is rerouting goods through these nations to avoid US tariffs.

    "For every dollar we sell to Cambodia, they sell us $39. And the reason Cambodia sells us anything at all is because China is using it to get around our tariffs," the official said.

    Vietnam, he added, is just as guilty, claiming that factories labeled as Vietnamese manufacturers are, in reality, nothing more than warehouses where Chinese-made products are rebranded and shipped to the US as ‘Made in Vietnam.’
