President Donald Trump announced his intention to impose a 25% tariff on all iPhones sold in the U.S., unless they are manufactured within the country. The threat follows Apple’s investment of $1.5 billion in Indian manufacturing facilities through its long-time supplier Foxconn, which aims to reduce reliance on China for iPhone production. Trump expressed discontent with this shift during his recent Middle East tour. Analysts have highlighted that while U.S.-based manufacturing is possible, the complex supply chain relies heavily on global components, many of which are subject to existing tariffs. The potential economic impact of such a move remains unclear. The debate centers around whether Apple would bear the tariff burden, potentially impacting consumers and further disrupting the already volatile global supply chains.
