Earlier, A US federal court ruled against US President Donald Trump's large-scale imposition of sweeping tariffs, deeming that this move exceeds his legal authority and that it would affect a wide range of imported goods, as reported by CNN.

The decision, handed down by the US Court of International Trade in Manhattan, determined that the tariffs -- including those introduced under emergency economic powers -- were unlawful. However, the Trump administration has already filed an appeal.

The White House on Thursday expressed its stern disagreement with the US federal court for blocking the Trump administration's move to impose sweeping tariffs on other countries. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, lambasting the US court's ruling, said that the judges have failed to "acknowledge" the President's authority.
