Canada and Mexico have vowed retaliation with huge tariffs of their own. China, too, has vowed retaliatory tariffs and has announced its intention to file suit against the United States at the World Trade Organization. On the first episode of The Global Economy Report, Dimitri Lascaris spoke with Professor of economics Costas Lapavitsas about the new tariff war. Lascaris and Lapavitsas also discussed the emergence of a new artificial intelligence company in China, DeepSeek.
