Amid Trump tariff war, UK slashes some tariffs against U.S.

UK Prime Minister Kiir Starmer has suspended the customs tariff on 89 British products in an attempt to relieve the pressure on companies in the midst of the trade war Donald Trump.

The definitions are the taxes that the government places on imported goods.

The suspension of definitions on American imports ranges from elements such as pasta, fruit juices, electric car batteries and spices to plastic supplies and gardening supplies over the next two years, according to the announcement of the UK government on Sunday.

“While we face a new era of global trade, this government is going faster to make Britain the best country to do business, and to provide our plan for change. These pendants are just another example,” Jonathan Reynolds, the UK’s commercial secretary, said in a statement.

The plywood, plastic, and main building blocks are also included in the list of elements. The UK government expects that it may provide companies for 17 million pounds, or between $ 19 million and 22 million dollars.

“In the face of an unconfirmed and unpredictable global circulation environment, the government should be praised to suspend import duties on a group of products,” the British director of the British industry, Chun McGuier, said in a statement. “Such measures will be important to reduce financial pressure on companies and help increase the growth of companies of all sizes throughout the country.”

The pendants follow a executive of Trump on “mutual tariff”, to match the duties imposed by American goods by other countries in an attempt to restore what the administration considers “justice” for global trade. As part of this step, the UK was exposed to a 10 % tariff from the United States in addition to the current 25 % duties on aluminum, steel, cars and auto parts earlier this month.

In fact, Trump wrote that hostile commercial countries such as China, which will do everything in their authority to clarify the American people, “what has been exposed is that we need to create products in the United States, and that we will not be held hostage by other countries, especially hostile commercial countries such as China, which will do everything in their power in lack of respect for the American people.” “We cannot also allow them to continue to abuse our trade, as if it were decades ago, those days have ended!”

China responded to the US tariff by 145 % on Chinese imports by imposing a 125 % tariff on all goods coming from the United States
