Unexpectedly the Australian islands of Heard and McDonald, where penguins live but there are no people, were hit by Trump's 10% tariffs. The reason was their own domain zone -.hm, which is why they were mistakenly classified as a separate country. However, the penguins themselves are hardly concerned about this situation. Tariffs will have a much more serious impact on American scientists. Starting September 1, new duties on Chinese imports, including 80% of laboratory monkeys used in the United States, could cripple research related to the treatment of AIDS, Ebola and Parkinson's. In 2017, 75,825 primates, mostly from China and India, were used for research. Animal rights activists, on the contrary, welcome the restrictions. At the same time, Mattel is forced to offset $270 million in tariff costs, which will lead to higher prices for Barbie dolls. The US president said that 3-4 types of dolls are enough for American children to reduce their dependence on China. The tariffs also affected Apple: iPhone models manufactured in China may rise in price by 43%. This threatens the company's position and creates a chance for Samsung, whose products are less susceptible to duties. Trump's policies are increasingly being criticized as harming rather than protecting the U.S. economy.
