The President and the UK Prime Minister announced a trade deal, providing American companies access to the UK markets.
The trade deal will expand US market access in the UK, creating a $5 billion opportunity for new exports for US farmers, ranchers, and producers.
Additionally, the deal will create preferential access to UK aerospace components, and 10% reciprocal tariff rate on the first 100,000 UK origin vehicles per year (with the rate increasing to 25% after that threshold).
The White House Fact Sheet also states that “The United States…will negotiate an alternative arrangement to the Section 232 tariffs on steel and aluminum.”
No dates have been provided on when these actions will take effect. Click below to check out the White House Fact Sheet:
