President Donald Trump recently announced in his speech on the "Day of Liberation" that "jobs and factories will come back" after introducing unprecedented tariffs worldwide. However, Trump is particularly interested in a product that he wants to have in the USA: iPhones.

Trump demands iPhone production in the USA

"I have long said Tim Cook from Apple that I expect their iPhones, which are sold in the United States, not in India or elsewhere," said Trump on Friday morning on the Truth Social Platform. "If this is not the case, Apple has to pay a custom of at least 25 % to the USA."

experts warn of high production costs

Dan Ives, the global director of technology research at the financial services company Wedbus Securities, described the idea that iPhones could be produced cheaply in the USA in a conversation with CNN. IVES said that US-made iPhones would probably cost more than three times as much as the current price of around $ 1,000. This is due to the enormous costs associated with the replica of the highly complex production ecosystem that currently exists in Asia.
