In the wake of the Supreme Court ruling that invalidated much of Trump’s tariff regime, former trading partners are no longer waiting on Washington to sort out its legal chaos. Instead, they are accelerating efforts to route around the United States altogether. The European Union is deepening trade ties within its own bloc and with emerging markets in Asia and Latin America. Asian economies are expanding regional agreements that reduce reliance on US demand. Even close allies like Japan and South Korea are diversifying export destinations and strengthening supply chains that bypass American bottlenecks. What began as reluctant compliance with Trump’s tariff threats is quietly evolving into structural decoupling. The message from abroad is pragmatic and unsentimental: if US trade policy can be overturned overnight by domestic court battles, it is no longer a stable anchor for global commerce. Independent media has never been more important.
