Mr. Trump also plans to tax steel imports.
He signaled other tariffs would be imposed in the coming weeks, though he did not provide exact dates.
Trump also told reporters in the Oval Office he would “absolutely” place tariffs on goods from the European Union.
“They’re treating us so badly,” Trump said of the EU.
“Tariffs don’t cause inflation. Tariffs cause success,” Trump said. “There could be some temporary short-term disruption, and people understand that.”
President Trump said it would help US manufacturing.
