“U.S. officials plan to conduct staggered trade negotiations using a new template that sets common terms for many of the talks,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
“In an attempt to streamline talks over President Trump’s so-called reciprocal tariffs, officials plan to use a framework prepared by the U.S. Trade Representative’s office that lays out broad categories for negotiation: tariffs and quotas; non-tariff barriers to trade, such as regulations on U.S. goods; digital trade; rules of origin for products; and economic security and other commercial issues.”
“Within those categories, U.S. officials would spell out demands for individual nations, people familiar with the matter said, emphasizing that the document could change as the administration gets more input.”
