The U.S. Commerce Department announced it has initiated national security investigations under 'Section 232' into the imports of various goods including medical protective equipment, robotics, and industrial machinery. This probe seeks to assess the demand for these items and evaluate the capacity of domestic production to meet U.S. needs, potentially leading to increased tariffs on a range of goods such as surgical masks and industrial equipment. The investigation also examines the impact of foreign supply chains and governmental subsidies on the U.S. market.
