USTR Greer calls tariff policy wildly successful
US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said that the US tariff policy has been very successful.
He mentioned that the Trump administration has changed US trade policy in the past year, which has led to a reduction in the trade deficit and more businesses moving back to the US.
Greer also said that the administration is planning new tariffs to replace those that were overturned by the Supreme Court.
He believes that the tariffs are driven by economic considerations and are necessary to address unfair trade practices.
However, some people think that tariffs could strain relations with traditional allies.
