The simple formula behind the tariffs


Dear readers,

The Trump team's technique to calculate the tariffs he has threatened the world with is raising more than one eyebrow. Although the U.S. president said they'd use a sophisticated system based on each country and bloc, it turns out that the formula is a very simple one, even if "they cover it up by using Greek symbols," as one expert ironically pointed out.

This week we also take a look at the eight points that can get you identified as a member of the Tren de Aragua gang in the United States; interview Haydée Milanés, the daughter of renowned singer-songwriter Pablo Milanés; look at the war over robotaxis brewing in Austin; and go deep underground to a lab in the Pyrenees where scientists are searching for the answer to the Big Question.

‌We hope you enjoy this selection of articles from EL PAÍS USA Edition.
