News India Live, Digital Desk: Foreign policy: There is an interesting political debate in America at this time. Scott Besant, a potential candidate for the post of Donald Trump and the post of Treasury Secretary (Finance Minister), has put forward an idea that has shocked everyone. He says that if he becomes Treasury Secretary, then half of the tariffs recovered from countries like China will return, but there will be a big condition for this.
It is a condition that those countries become an ally of America and support its foreign policy. Besant believes that it is not only enough to put tariffs, but it should also be used to differentiate between friends and enemies. He argues that if a country supports America, then it should get financial benefit.
Scott Besant, who has been a big investor himself, has said these things somewhere in an interview. His statement has come at a time when the tension between America and China has already increased considerably. In the previous term of Trump, heavy tariffs were imposed on China, which have not yet been completely removed.
A new debate has started with this proposal of Besant. Some people believe that this may be a masterstroke, so that the US will be able to keep its colleagues together and will also keep pressure on China. At the same time, some critics are calling it a dangerous idea. He says that this can cause instability in America’s trade policy.
It is clear that if Donald Trump comes back after winning the election and Scott Besant is made Treasury Secretary, then there can be big changes in America’s trade policy. The formula of this “tariff return” remains just an election promise or becomes a reality, it will tell only the time to come. But it is certain that this one statement has created a stir in the economic and political corridors around the world.
