US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer stated in a New York Times interview that the United States — Presidency of Donald Trump's tariff policy has been 'wildly successful,' reducing the trade deficit and reshoring businesses. He noted that the administration is planning new tariffs on countries using forced labor to replace those struck down by the Supreme Court. Greer also said broad tariffs enabled trade deals with the United Kingdom, European Union, Indonesia, India, and Japan. He expressed no regrets over the legal strategy, blaming the Supreme Court for striking down tariffs, and emphasized the administration's commitment to changing US trade policy.
