GENEVA, Sept 6, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - Postal traffic to the United States plunged 
more than 80 percent following Washington's imposition of new tariffs, with 
88 operators worldwide fully or partially suspending services, the Universal 
Postal Union said Saturday.

The UPU, the United Nations' postal cooperation agency, is working on "the 
rapid development of a new technical solution that will help get mail moving 
to the United States again", its director general Masahiko Metoki said in a 
statement.
