Following the Supreme Court ruling, importers have filed hundreds of claims seeking refunds. P.

One point is clear: The Supreme Court ruling does not deny the President authority to impose tariffs. In proceedings before the Trade Court, Trump’s lawyers reportedly agreed that tariff revenues would be refunded if the measures were overturned, according to The New York Times.

This may be the most optimistic global scenario the SC ruling offers, even as it promises immediate turbulence in trade circles.

Iran agreed a secret 500 million euro ($589 million) arms deal with Russia to acquire thousands of advanced shoulder-fired missiles, the Financial Times reported on Sunday.

Russia has a strategic partnership treaty with Iran, although it does not include a mutual defence clause.
