(NewsNation) — President Donald Trump on Monday announced that Venezuela will face a "secondary tariff" come April 2, alleging that the nation purposefully sent criminals to the U.S., which earned it the levy.

In a Truth Social post, Trump said the U.S. would impose a 25% tariff on any country that buys oil or gas from Venezuela.

Other reciprocal tariffs are set to begin that same day, including levies against Mexico, Japan, South Korea, Canada, India, China, the European Union and more.
