President Trump criticises Walmart, warns against price hikes
US President Trump criticized retail giant Walmart for saying it would "not blame tariffs" for its decision to raise prices on products in response to the administration's tariff measures, and warned the move to raise prices.
ウォルマートは今月15日、中国やベトナムなどから商品を輸入しているとした上で、関税によるコストの上昇を吸収するのは難しいとして、商品の値上げに踏み切る方針を示しました
On the 15th of this month, Walmart said it was importing goods from China and Vietnam, and announced its intention to raise prices on goods, saying it would be difficult to absorb the rise in costs caused by tariffs.
これについてトランプ大統領は17日、自身のSNSに「ウォルマートは値上げの理由を関税のせいにしようとするのをやめるべきだ
"Walmart should stop trying to blame tariffs for the reasons for the price hike," Trump wrote on his social media on the 17th.
"Walmart made a huge profit, far exceeding expectations last year."
And then, "Walmart and China should 'accept customs' tariffs' and should not charge any customers at all.
I, like my customers, I'm keeping an eye on it!"The company asked Walmart not to pass on the rise in costs caused by tariffs to its customers.
In the United States, there is a strong sense of caution that tariff measures will accelerate again, and the focus is on whether price hikes will spread among other retailers in the future, and President Trump is likely to aim to curb these movements.
