White House Accuses Over 40 Countries, Including India, of Helping China Evade Tariffs, Costing US Billions
The Trump White House has exposed a vast ‘Transshipment Scam’ that allegedly enables China to avoid billions in tariffs through the help of more than 40 countries. An official report estimates the financial loss to the US at between $19 billion and $26 billion annually. The White House claims that nations like India and Canada are among the biggest enablers, acting as middlemen in a shadow transshipment network. The administration has begun deploying AI tools to crack down on these tariff evasion tactics as the situation continues to raise concerns over fair trade practices and potential impacts on global supply chains.
