John Smith: We're joined now by economic analyst, Jane Doe, who has been following this story closely. Jane, can you break down what this means for the economy?

Jane Doe: Thank you, John. The tariffs will likely lead to higher prices for American consumers, and could also lead to job losses in industries that rely heavily on Chinese imports. However, some experts believe that the move could also boost American manufacturing and create new jobs in industries that are not dependent on Chinese goods.

John Smith: Thank you, Jane. We'll continue to follow this story and bring you updates as more information becomes available.
