Mexico, Canada and China, as well as leading industry associations, have warned of serious economic consequences from US President-elect Donald Trump's plans to impose heavy tariffs on imported goods.
According to them, such actions threaten the economies of all three countries, can provoke an increase in inflation and harm labor markets.
Trump's promise, announced on Monday, caused unrest in the currency, equity and bond markets on Tuesday. Mexico and Canada, which are closely linked to the United States in the areas of automobile production and energy, are particularly concerned.
International leaders warn that such measures could lead to a trade war that will have a negative impact on the global economy.
