US President Donald Trump imposes 100% tariff on drones
US President Donald Trump imposed up to 100% tariffs on drones, targeting Chinese-made models over national security concerns. China's DJI holds more than 70% of the global market, and US law enforcement uses its devices for tasks like tracking wildfires and finding missing persons. Regulators had effectively barred the sale of new models in December over similar concerns.
Why it matters: This tariff reflects the ongoing theme of US-China economic decoupling in strategic technology sectors.
