Zimbabwe has announced a temporary suspension of tariffs on goods imported from the United States, in a move aimed at strengthening bilateral trade and fostering economic cooperation between the two nations.

This decision reflects Zimbabwe’s focus on promoting fair trade practices and fostering global cooperation.
