The raid angered South Korea, a close ally who agreed to invest $ 350 billion in the United States in exchange for a short reduction in Korean product customs from 25 percent to 15 percent. The rates are paid by American companies and the expenses are usually transmitted to consumers.

Hyundai and LG Energy Solution, a South Korean battery manufacturer, will be operated by the battery, as a $ 12.6 billion investment in Georgia, which also has a nearby car factory.
“So Maga wanted the rates to bring back production to the United States. But when the company tries to open the factory here, Maga diminishes it. You have proven again what a shame your party is for our country,” the user wrote according to one of the Branum Instagram records.
