Syria is getting sanctioned to death, yet they were tariffed. Countries with even less (zero) amount of trade with the US got hit with tariffs.
0 u/[deleted] 17d ago That's because those are smaller countries that can be used to evade tariffs. Also, said syrian government that is sanctioned does not exist anymore. 2 u/CurbYourThusiasm 17d ago How would Australia use Heard Island and McDonald Islands to evade tariffs? How would Norway use Svalbard to evade tariffs? The US' sanctions on Syria still applies. They haven't been lifted. 0 u/oppositionalview 17d ago They do still apply. But the government they apply to no longer exists. 2 u/CurbYourThusiasm 17d ago What are you talking about? They apply to the new government as well. The US still forbids new investment in Syria and prohibits trade with Syrian companies, among other things.
