President Donald Trump said on Friday that US tariffs could not be bound to the deadline at the beginning of July to enter into force in a series of countries.
Hayır No, we can do anything we want, Tr Trump said in the White House when he asked if his deadline was placed on the stone. “We can expand it. We can take shorter.”
The question was, especially on July 9, the US and the European Union was the deadline for negotiating a trade agreement or implementing a 50% tariff on EU imports.
However, the response of the President referred to the last date of July 8 when he sent a three -month pause on the “mutual tariffs” defined by many nations to the first, much higher levels of the country.
Despite Trump’s visible flexibility for dates, executive order He signed on April 9 unless he was officially updated.
This order reduced Trump’s tariffs to 10% throughout the board of directors for 90 days, and said that temporary reorganization will only take three months.
Unless Trump revised the order, comprehensive tariffs will return to high rates of sky within 12 days.
This may have a major impact on a series of US trade partners, and the risk of repeating the global economic turmoil that Trump announced when he announced his first tariff rates on April 2.
Countries, Great Import Mission, in which Trump called the “Day of Liberation”, was launched – some of them were blind – some of them are about 50% high.
Immediately, what followed is variable markets and criticisms and alarms rather than investors, world leaders and importers. A week later, Trump announced a 90 -day pause about new tariff rates.
The White House initially said that in April, in the intervening months, the individual trade agreements would withdraw with the points of the countries.
However, in the 90 -day interim period, the White House has made limited trade agreements with China and the United Kingdom so far.
Both of these agreements frames more than finalized agreements. Beijing said that the Ministry of Commerce in the early hours of China and the United States have adopted the details of the trade framework accepted by both parties in previous talks.
“Probably made an agreement with four or five different countries, Tr Trump said on Friday, but” 200 countries, 200 countries plus “.
“So at a certain point, we will send a letter at a certain point, or maybe before, we’ve talked to many countries, and we’ll tell them what they need to pay to do in the United States, and we’ll go very fast.” He said.
Trump’s latest comments were followed by other suggestions that the administrative officials’ July Tariff is fluent.
“Perhaps it can be expanded, but this is a decision for the president to make,” the White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Thursday. He said.
In late May, a Federal Commercial Court dropped tariffs and decided that the law that Trump called to impose them did not give him the authority he claimed. However, a Federal Court of Appeal paused this decision to enter into force.
