WASHINGTON (AP) President Donald Trump said Monday he is increasing tariffs on South Korean goods because the country's national assembly has yet to approve the trade framework announced last year. Trump said on social media that import taxes would be raised on autos, lumber and pharmaceutical drugs from South Korea with the rate on other goods going from 15% to 25%.

Trump previously said he was implementing the new baseline duty under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, which grants the president unilateral ability to impose tariffs. But the untested legal provision puts a 150-day limit on how long the duties can remain in place. Congress would need to approve any extension. The Supreme Court, in a 6-3 decision handed down earlier Friday, ruled that Trump's use of a decades-old federal emergency-powers law to impose his so-called "reciprocal" tariffs was unlawful.
