The United States Government in interviews with 15 different countries about changing or reducing tariffs (which are taxes from imported goods). These countries have submitted proposals or agreements hope that the US will agree, said Kevin Hassett, an economic advisor to the White House, on Thursday, April 10. He added that the US is approaching some countries.
Trump official said the US was studying and considering these offers to see if they were good enough to bring President Trump to the final decision.
“Ustr informed us that there are now about 15 countries that have made explicit offers we are studying, considering and deciding whether they are good enough to present the president,” said Kevin Hassett.
The US began to consider offers from 15 countries on tariff agreements after Donald Trump surprised everyone by stopping tariffs for most countries – perhaps encouraging them to try to conclude their own agreements with the US in the middle of a trade war that erased billions of dollars from the world market.
