The tariffs, with rates varying by country, were initially set to begin on August 1 but were postponed to August 7 to allow some nations more time to finalize deals.Countries actively negotiating trade agreements, such as China and mexico, are currently exempt. The European Union is also on the tariff list but is working on a deal. Last-minute agreements with Pakistan and South Korea were announced.
