Trump tariffs

The White House confirmed today that it sent a letter asking nations to submit their best trade offers by Wednesday.

The progress around trade deals since 'Liberation Day' has been painstaking and now we wait to see what the Trump administration is planning.

Reuters obtained the letter, which asked countries for their best offers on tariffs, quotas for purchases of US products, and plans to kill other non-tariff barriers.

I wouldn't assume that we will see immediate retaliation or action from the White House. The NY Post reported that the letter was meant as a progress check on trade partners, not necessarily a request for a final offer, citing an official close to the matter.
