US, UK regimes strike first major trade deal of Trump tariff era

Source: Axios

“The U.S. and Britain have apparently struck a major trade deal, set to be announced at the White House Thursday morning. It’s the first major trade pact since Trump began a campaign of global tariffs. It may serve as a model for the dozens of other countries negotiating with his administration. The full contours were not immediately clear, though Bloomberg said talks had focused on reducing tariffs for cars and steel.” (05/08/25)
