THE Trump administration is ready to announce a plan to allocate 12 billion dollars in emergency aid to American farmers who have been hurt by the latest import tariffs, U.S. media reported on Tuesday.
“The White House intends to release the plan as early as Tuesday,’’ The Washington Post newspaper reported, citing sources familiar with the matter.
The report has said the administration is taking the action in response to complaints from farmers who fear that President Donald Trump’s tariff policies will result in a trade war.
