Former President Donald Trump has reiterated his stance linking China to the US fentanyl crisis, stating that proposed tariffs would proceed unless China significantly limits the drug’s supply.
Trump’s comments, made via his Truth Social account in February, highlighted that a significant portion of fentanyl and related drugs are manufactured and supplied by China. He declared that scheduled tariffs, set to take effect on March 4th, would be implemented if the flow of these substances was not halted or seriously curtailed.
