Trump threatens pharmaceutical companies to impose heavy customs duties

US President Donald Trump, pharmaceutical companies operating in the local market, vowed to impose heavy customs duties, confirming that this measure will be taken after a period of time he did not specify.
The United States imports a value of $ 10.2 billion annually of pharmaceutical products from China, according to estimates of the "Atlantic Council" research institution.
Last February, Trump warned pharmaceutical companies in a closed meeting against imposing customs duties on the sector, calling on them to transfer its production lines abroad to American territory.
