A look at the countries that received Trump’s tariff letters

US President Donald Trump has sent letters to a handful of countries this week outlining higher tariffs they'll face if they don't make trade deals with the US by Aug. 1.

Some of these import taxes mirror the same, so-called "reciprocal" rates Trump unveiled against dozens of trading partners in April — the bulk of which were later postponed just hours after taking effect. But many levies that Trump is now pledging to impose next month are higher or lower than those previously-announced amounts, signalling some sway in recent negotiations.

Future escalation is still possible. In the letters, which were posted on Truth Social, Trump warned countries that they would face even higher tariffs if they retaliated by increasing their own import taxes.

Here's a look at the countries that have got tariff letters so far — and where things stand now:
