Trump Pushes Countries for Best Trade Offers

“The Trump administration wants countries to provide their best offer on trade negotiations by Wednesday as officials seek to accelerate talks with multiple partners ahead of a self-imposed deadline in just five weeks,” Reuters reports.

“The draft, from the office of the United States Trade Representative, provides a window into how President Donald Trump plans to bring to a close unwieldy negotiations with dozens of countries that kicked off on April 9 when he paused his ‘Liberation Day’ tariffs for 90 days until July 8 after stock, bond and currency markets revolted over the sweeping nature of the levies.”
