Trade dispute
White house: Templation for tariffs is postponed to August 1st
Trump wants to provide a better position against a number of countries against a number of countries. Actually, the deadline for the start on Wednesday would have expired. There is a new one.
US President Donald Trump plans to postpone the period of tariffs that have been targeted for this Wednesday (July 9). He will sign a corresponding decree this Monday, said his spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt. Imports should now be off the table until then – however, many details are still open, including how the EU and the USA want to trade trading in the future.
Because the deadline on Wednesday would also have expired for the European Union. She has been negotiating with the United States in the customs dispute for a long time – the outcome is open. What exactly the new deadline for the EU means was initially unclear.
The first letters with new customs regulations are out
US President Donald Trump sent the first of several announced letters to countries with new customs regulations on Monday, including Japan, South Korea, South Africa and Malaysia. The spokeswoman for the White House said that mutual tariffs or the new tariffs listed in the letters will come into force – “or agreements are made”. These countries will continue to negotiate with the United States. Many positive developments have been seen in the right direction.
The EU relied on a fundamental agreement on the customs dispute with the USA. EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen on Sunday with US President Trump on the phone on the current state of negotiations, said a spokesman in Brussels. One was at the “beginning of the final phase”, it said on Monday afternoon. The speaker did not want to provide any details about the details of the conversation.
Are many deals coming quickly now?
In April, Trump introduced a base customover of ten percent to almost all imports from the EU. In addition, special tariffs apply to certain products, such as steel and aluminum and auto imports. With his customs policy, Trump wants to achieve more in the USA.
US Finance Minister Scott Bessent said in the CNN broadcaster that he quickly expected many deals due to the letters. He also spoke of around 100 letters to small countries with which the United States does not trade a lot. “The countries receive a letter that says: If we have not reached an agreement, you fall back to the level of April 2.” That day Trump announced his far -reaching customs package.
