CBP has detained train car components from China intended for use by the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, according to reporting by NBC10 Boston. In May, CBP seized imports of car shells and other components made by Chinese state-owned company CRRC, under suspicion that the company violated the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act. CRRC MA, the Massachusetts-based subsidiary of CRRC, issued a statement saying that the company has "maintained rigorous compliance reviews of all suppliers and confirms that no entity involved in these shipments is linked to any violation" of UFLPA, according to the TV station's report. The statement said that CRRC MA has been "providing documentation to CBP to demonstrate full compliance," the station reported.

President Donald Trump issued an executive order late July 7 that said he is postponing the effective date of higher country-specific reciprocal tariff rates from July 9 to Aug. 1 "based on additional information and recommendations from various senior officials, including information on the status of discussions with trading partners."

President Donald Trump shared the text of his "offer letters" to Japan and South Korea, telling those countries' leaders that goods from their countries will be subject to 25% tariffs, beginning Aug. 1. Back in April, he had said a 24% reciprocal tariff rate would apply to Japanese goods, and a 25% rate would apply for South Korean goods, with those rates briefly taking effect before being delayed until July 9.

Two days before the now extended pause on higher country-specific reciprocal tariffs was to end (see 2507070054), President Donald Trump shared screenshots of letters he is sending to trading partners large -- Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia -- and small, informing them what rates their goods will face at the border, starting Aug. 1.
