Also 100% tariffs wont affect Pakistan. Here is why..... When you buy a $10 shirt that says “Made in Pakistan” remember the actual labor cost of making the shirt in Pakistan is probably less then 50 cents. The rest of the costs involves shipping, packaging, inventory, marketing, branding and retailing, most of which happens in the US. Applying tariff to 50 cents worth of labor cost wont even be noticeable in the overall product cost.
