The Trump administration is working on a tariff framework for semiconductors that could link relief from import duties to companies building chip manufacturing capacity in the US.The administration has been preparing semiconductor tariffs for some time, although it has not publicly disclosed details about the proposed measures. Lutnick also confirmed a POLITICO report from last week that the White House was considering a new round of tariffs on semiconductors."I think what you're going to see is targeted, thoughtful tariff policy that basically says if you build here, you don't pay, but if you don't build here, expect to pay to enter the greatest market in the world," US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told CNBC.Also read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/weapons-equipment-technical-and-tactical-iran-says-it-has-new-surprises-ready-if-another-war-breaks-out-1787911559031">‘Weapons, equipment, technical and tactical’: Iran says it has new ‘surprises’ ready if another war breaks out</a><h2>Semiconductor tariffs in the works</h2>&nbsp;Lutnick said companies are aware that the tariffs are coming, but did not provide details on their potential rates or scope."We will be successful in semiconductors.
