## Malaysia Becomes First Country To Declare US Trade Deal 'Null And Void' After Supreme Court Tariff Ruling

Authored by benzinga.com

Malaysia has declared the trade deal with the U.S. invalid after the Supreme Court ruled President Donald Trump‘s tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) illegal in February.

Johari emphasized that Malaysia must ensure its exporters comply with labor and environmental standards to avoid potential disruptions.

White House did not immediately respond to Benzinga‘s request for comments.
