Noting the 44% tariff imposed on Myanmar, Sebastian Strangio writes,
"The fact that the administration has passed this off as a 'tariff' rate, and then used this as the basis for the imposition of so-called reciprocal tariffs on other nations – in most cases the latter seems to have been calculated simply by halving the former – is a sign of spectacular mendacity and incompetence."

"Trump hits Myanmar with a 44% tariff days after earthquake that killed over 3,000. Myanmar is among the tranche of developing countries hardest hit by Trump’s severe and sweeping tariffs, with a 44% rate levied against it. The nation is reeling from an earthquake on Friday that killed more than 3,000, and years of civil war following a 2021 military coup."
