US and UK say they’ve cemented a trade agreement that Trump calls fair for both nations
- At the G7 summit on Monday, U.S. President Trump and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer finalized a trade agreement aimed at lowering tariffs on British automobile and aerospace products.
- The deal follows a framework agreed in May which spared the UK from the global doubling of metals tariffs to 50%, though steel tariffs remain at 25% pending further negotiation.
- The agreement cuts car tariffs from 27.5% to 10% up to 100,000 vehicles per year and exempts UK aerospace from a 10% U.S. levy, while work continues on steel tariff details.
- Starmer described the agreement as an important milestone benefiting both nations, while Trump highlighted the deal’s completion and its positive impact on employment and earnings.
- The UK committed to meet U.S. supply chain security requirements for steel and aluminum exports, with ongoing efforts to implement the deal and resolve steel tariff issues.
