US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Tuesday that tariffs are a crucial part of President Donald Trump's economic strategy, asserting that they can be a source of government revenue to help fund investment. They are able to boost US industrial capacity, help improve national security, and can be "an important source of government revenue, which can help fund investments," he added.
