Tariffs are taxes or duties imposed by a government on
imported goods. They are one of the oldest and most common
instruments of trade policy and are used to control the flow
of foreign goods into a country, protect domestic industries,
and generate revenue for the government. Tariffs can be
specific (a fixed fee per unit of the imported good) or ad
valorem (a percentage of the value of the imported
good).
How Tariffs Work
When a country imposes tariffs, it sets a tax on
imported goods. Importers must pay these taxes when the goods
enter the country, which typically increases the cost of the
imported goods. This cost increase can make imported goods
more expensive for consumers, which can lead to several
potential outcomes:
Reduced Imports: Higher costs
for imported goods can lead to a decrease in the
quantity of goods imported.
Increased Domestic Production:
By making imported goods more expensive, tariffs can
make domestically produced goods more competitive,
potentially boosting local industries.
Higher Consumer Prices: The
increased costs of imported goods can be passed on to
consumers, leading to higher prices for goods and
services.
Consequences of Tariffs
The imposition of tariffs can have a wide range of
consequences, both positive and negative:
Economic Consequences
Consumer Impact: Consumers
often bear the brunt of tariffs through higher prices
for goods and services. This can reduce consumer
purchasing power and overall demand for certain
products.
Business Impact: For businesses
that rely on imported raw materials or components,
tariffs can increase production costs, which may
result in higher prices for end products or reduced
profit margins.
Trade Relations: Tariffs can
strain trade relations between countries, potentially
leading to trade wars where countries retaliate by
imposing their own tariffs.
Government Revenue: Tariffs can
provide a source of revenue for governments, which can
be used to fund public services or reduce the budget
deficits.
Social and Political Consequences
Protectionism: Tariffs are
often used as a tool for protectionism, shielding
domestic industries from foreign competition. While
this can preserve local jobs and industries, it can
also stifle innovation and efficiency.
International Relations:
Tariffs can lead to tensions and conflicts between
trading partners, affecting diplomatic relations and
international cooperation.
Inequality: Tariffs can
disproportionately affect low-income consumers, who
maybe more sensitive to price increases for essential
goods.
Why Governments Participate in Tariffs
Governments impose tariffs for several reasons:
Protecting Domestic Industries:
By making imported goods more expensive, tariffs can
help protect domestic industries from foreign
competition, preserving local jobs and
businesses.
Generating Revenue: Tariffs can
be a significant source of revenue for governments,
especially in countries with limited tax collection
capabilities.
Trade Policy: Governments use
tariffs as part of their trade policy to negotiate
better trade terms with other countries or to
retaliate against unfair trade practices.
National Security: In some
cases, tariffs are imposed to protect industries that
are considered vital to national security, such as
defense and critical infrastructure.
Pros and Cons of Tariffs
Pros
Domestic Industry Protection:
Tariffs can provide a competitive advantage to
domestic industries, helping them grow and maintain
employment.
Government Revenue: Tariffs can
generate significant revenue for governments, which
can be used to fund public services.
Trade Leverage: Tariffs can be
used as leverage in trade negotiations, helping
governments secure better trade deals.
Cons
Higher Consumer Prices: Tariffs
often result in higher prices for consumers, reducing
their purchasing power and overall demand.
Economic Inefficiency: By
shielding domestic industries from competition,
tariffs can lead to inefficiencies and a lack of
innovation.
Trade Wars: Tariffs can provoke
retaliatory measures from other countries, leading to
trade wars that can harm global trade and economic
growth.
Impact on Low-Income Consumers:
Tariffs can disproportionately affect low-income
consumers, who may struggle with higher prices for
essential goods.

Briefing reporters at UN headquarters, MONUSCO chief Bintou Keita reaffirmed the mission’s commitment to protecting civilians under international humanitarian law. “Following the fall of Goma on 28 January, more than 1,400 high-risk individuals—have sought protection, including civilians, women, and children,” she said.
However, Keita cautioned that the mission is facing significant challenges in sustaining this protection “due to the sheer number of individuals under our protection, managing with difficult living conditions and limited supplies for longer than anticipated,” she said.
Keita said, “MONUSCO urgently calls—and I insist, MONUSCO urgently calls—for a safe, dignified, and internationally supported solution for the transfer of these individuals to an alternative secure location, in full respect of their rights and choices.”
Keita also pointed to ongoing security threats posed by the M23 armed group, which has taken control of parts of North Kivu with backing from the Rwandan Defense Forces. “Freedom of movement restrictions, including roadblocks and 48-hour advance notification requirements, prevent the mission from protecting civilians and carrying out life-saving operations,” she said.
The UN official warned that the group’s ambitions extend beyond North Kivu. “Very public declarations and statements by AFC/M23—clearly repeated over time, including last week—show that the intent is to go up Kinshasa,” she said. Keita added that M23 forces are continuing their push southward, toward South Kivu and Tanganyika.
She further expressed concern over reports that AFC/M23 is attempting to consolidate political control in occupied areas. “What we see is the communication from AFC/M23… at the establishment of, the appointment of a governor for Goma or a mayor for Goma. And we understand that the same is happening for Bukavu,” she said.
Regarding MONUSCO’s ongoing operations, Keita clarified that the mission remains engaged in North Kivu despite significant restrictions. “With the conditions and requirements, we are still moving around,” she said, adding that SAMI DRC, a regional force, is also stationed in Goma while MONUSCO continues to fulfill its civilian protection mandate across other bases.
Keita also commented on an upcoming UN Security Council resolution on the crisis, that is scheduled today (Feb 21) saying her “expectation is that it's going to be voted unanimously.”

United Nations Video: Syria: Socioeconomic impact of 14 years of conflict - Press Conference | United Nations
Press Conference by Abdallah Al Dardari, UN Development Programme (UNDP) Assistant Administrator and Director, Regional Bureau for Arab States, on the socioeconomic impact of 14 years of the conflict in Syria. Mr. Al Dardari is joined virtually by UNDP Resident Representative in Syria, Sudipto Mukerjee.
-------------------------
"This is one of the deadliest conflicts in recent history," said UN official Abdallah Al Dardari, briefing journalists on the socioeconomic impact of 14 years of the conflict in Syria.
Speaking virtually at a press briefing today (Feb 20), Al Dardari outlined the devastating human and economic toll of the war. “The lives lost in the Syria conflict so far, what has been reported is 618,000,” he said, adding that 113,000 people remain forcibly disappeared with their fate unknown. More than half of the country's population has been forcibly displaced, including 7.2 million internally displaced persons (IDPs) and six million refugees.
The economic impact, he noted, has been equally severe. “The GDP loss is more than half. The people living in poverty today are 90 per cent of the population. That is three times the level of poverty of 2010,” he said. Extreme poverty now affects 66 percent of Syrians, six times the pre-war figure of 11 percent. The conflict has also resulted in widespread unemployment, with job losses affecting 5.4 million people and the unemployment rate rising from eight percent to 24 percent.
With economic collapse deepening, dependence on humanitarian assistance continues to grow. “16.5 million Syrians depend on assistance,” Al Dardari said, highlighting food insecurity as a critical concern. “Acute food insecurity is four per cent, severe food insecurity is 52 per cent,” he said.
The war has also devastated Syria’s infrastructure, particularly its energy sector. “80 per cent of the country's energy capacity has been lost. Syria used to generate around 9000 megawatts in 2010; today, it is generating less than 1500 megawatts,” he said. Damage to power plants and the national grid has left the country struggling to meet basic energy needs, with 70 percent of power plants and 75 percent of grid load capacity lost.
Housing destruction has been extensive, with Al Dardari reporting that “out of 5.5 million homes in 2010, 328,000 homes [were] fully destroyed, and one out of three houses [was] destroyed or damaged.”
Despite these grim figures, Al Dardari emphasized that there remains a pathway to recovery. “Because we believe that there is a chance for recovery, and that the UN is working on a transition and recovery framework, and UNDP, as the agency working on economic and social and human development, is preparing some scenarios for recovery,” he said. However, he warned that if Syria continues its current trajectory of 1.3 percent GDP growth per year, “it will go back to the 2010 GDP in 55 years.”
On financial support, he acknowledged ongoing challenges in securing official development assistance (ODA) and stressed the need for investment. “Syria still needs a large amount of grant funding, but actually the country depends, and will depend on investments,” he said.
Al Dardari underscored the UN’s commitment to Syria’s recovery through its Transition Plan, with UNDP focusing on socioeconomic rebuilding within a broader UN-led framework.

UNHCR today launched an appeal seeking $40.4 million to deliver protection and assistance to 275,000 internally displaced people in South Kivu, North Kivu, Maniema and Tanganyika provinces of the DRC, as well as to support a potential influx of 258,000 refugees, asylum-seekers, and returnees in neighbouring countries, including Burundi, Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia.
UNHCR said there is an urgent need for shelter, food and latrines as well as relocation of the new arrivals to other sites to address overcrowding. UNHCR and its partners are stepping up assistance, distributing warm meals and water to new arrivals. They need all sorts of relief supplies.
DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO
And just to say that in South Kivu, humanitarian partners have also raised concerns that ongoing clashes in Uvira are hindering access – including the movement of ambulances – while hospitals report daily casualties among civilians.
An in the Kalehe territory, fighting has forced more than 50,000 people to flee over the past week, many to Burundi. Since February, more than 40,000 Congolese nationals – the majority of whom are women and children – have arrived in Burundi seeking protection there.
SECRETARY-GENERAL
A couple of travel notes, as I mentioned to you yesterday, the Secretary-General will be in Geneva on Monday to address the Human Rights Council as well as the committee on disarmament.
DEPUTY SECRETARY-GENERAL
Our Deputy Secretary-General is in South Africa, where today she took part in the second and final day of the G20 Foreign Ministers Meeting.
In her remarks, Amina Mohammed reaffirmed our support for the G20 platform.

She underscored that in today’s deeply interconnected world, no nation can stand alone and that global challenges demand global action.
In the afternoon, she had a number bilateral discussions with several foreign ministers, emphasizing the urgency of reinforced multilateralism and strong partnerships to accelerate the implementation of the Pact for the Future and the SDGs.
She also sought their support for securing an ambitious outcome at the Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development which will take place in Seville, Spain, in July.
Tomorrow, she travels to Nairobi, Kenya, for a series of engagements on food systems ahead of the second UN Food Systems Summit Stocktake, which will take place in Addis Ababa, also in July.
And, yesterday, I said that Ms. Mohammed met with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa. I stand corrected - that meeting did not take place.
SOUTH SUDAN
Our Under-Secretary-General for Peace Operations, Jean-Pierre Lacroix, is continuing his own travels in eastern Africa. In South Sudan, he met today with the country’s First Vice President, Riek Machar. They discussed the progressing peace implementation, among other topics.
He also met with key members of technical bodies tasked with constitution-making and electoral preparations, to get a sense of the challenges they face in making significant advances in their respective areas.
Additionally, he held discussions with the diplomatic community, including the African Union and Intergovernmental Authority on Development, known as IGAD. As mentioned, Mr. Lacroix will travel to Abyei tomorrow to visit the peacekeeping mission there.

United Nations Video: From Ground Zero - Global Event featuring Oscar-shortlisted Film | United Nations Movie Society
On Friday, 21 February 2025, the UN Movie Society of the United Nations Staff Recreation Council - dedicated to advancing UN global causes through the transformative power of storytelling, will present an event featuring excerpts from the 2025 Oscar-shortlisted International Feature Film, FROM GROUND ZERO. The programme will be broadcasted live & on demand on the global channels of the United Nations - UN Web TV and UN YouTube.
FROM GROUND ZERO was filmed during the devastating war in Gaza, during which – according to the United Nations Relief and Work Agency (UNRWA) - over 48,000 Palestinians have been reportedly killed since October 7th, 2023 - the vast majority of them children, women and the elderly. And many more are feared missing under the rubble. Sadly, 273 UNRWA colleagues have also been killed since the war began.
In under two hours, the film weaves together 22 short films created by 22 courageous Palestinian filmmakers living and surviving in Gaza over this past year. While pulling from the rubble of their homes and their cities, these filmmakers have come together to share these stories with us – mixing dramatic storytelling, documentary, and animation. FROM GROUND ZERO is a moving and compelling story about resilience and the human spirit. The very existence of this film is remarkable, given the dangerous circumstances that existed on the ground at the time of filming. It is a portrayal of resilience and the human spirit that explores the importance of storytelling in a powerful way.
On this occasion, the event will be opened with remarks delivered by H.E. Mr. Riyad H. Mansour, Ambassador and Permanent Observer of the State of Palestine to the United Nations. In addition, remarks by Director Rashid Masharawi will be featured.
Movies hold the unique power to promote universal ideals, principles, and values so deeply enshrined by the United Nations - including peace, development, respect for human rights, cultural appreciation, the dignity of the human person, and equal rights for all. Founded at the United Nations Headquarters by Brenda Vongova, the UN Movie Society is committed to championing the goals and values of the United Nations through the universal language of motion pictures.
