UK says 'nothing is off the table' in response to US tariffs
The UK government is engaging with the US amid uncertainty over Trump's 15% global tariff plan and may consider reciprocal measures to protect British businesses.
- On Friday, the US Supreme Court outlawed most of the global tariffs announced last year, saying the president overstepped his powers.
- The proposed 15% global tariff excludes steel, aluminium, pharmaceuticals, automobiles and aerospace, which represent most UK‑US trade, analysts said.
- On Sunday, US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said trade deals allies negotiated still stood and told CBS, `These deals are going to be good deals` and `We expect our partners to stand by them.`
- GTA analysis found countries the US criticised, including China and Brazil, would benefit as the 15% tariff is lower than their current rates.
- The legal distinction between broad legislation and sector tariffs complicates responses, as the legislation to impose broad tariffs differs and may shift trade winners among trading partners and allies.
