KEY POINTS Trump is set to launch "reciprocal tariffs" against all other countries that have their own duties on U.S. goods or other trade barriers. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has singled out what he called the "Dirty 15" — the 15% of countries that trade heavily with the U.S. and have high tariffs. The forthcoming import duties will pile on top of a flurry of others that Trump has already announced.

Kevin Hassett, director of Trump's National Economic Council, said in a subsequent interview on the network that the administration is looking at 10 to 15 countries that account for America's "entire trillion-dollar trade deficit."

Those include many of the countries in the Group of 20, as well as other "economies that have the largest trade deficits in goods with the United States," according to the notice.

They are: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, the European Union, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, the United Kingdom and Vietnam.

The White House did not respond to CNBC's request for clarification on the forthcoming tariffs or the Dirty 15.
