Trump Officials Unveil New, Delayed Deadline for Tariffs
- On July 7, 2025, President Trump and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick confirmed that new tariffs will take effect on August 1, 2025, if trade deals are not reached.
- This announcement follows an earlier pause on reciprocal tariffs imposed on April 2, intended to allow ongoing trade negotiations with countries including the UK, China, and Vietnam.
- Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the administration is close to multiple agreements and expects imminent announcements while emphasizing that tariffs remain a key leverage tool.
- Bessent highlighted, "We're going to see a lot of deals very quickly," but declined to specify which countries are involved, noting that price adjustments have yet to fully materialize.
- The tariff deadline and notification effort signal continuing U.S. pressure on trade partners to finalize deals before rates revert to their higher April 2 levels.
