President Trump signed an Executive Order implementing the U.S.-UK Economic Prosperity Deal, expanding market access for U.S. exports—especially agriculture—and addressing national security concerns via tariff adjustments and structured negotiations across key sectors.
-
The order introduces specific tariff measures for UK automobiles, aerospace products, and steel/aluminum, including tariff-rate quotas and exemptions. These provisions aim to strengthen U.S. industries while ensuring compliance with national security and trade principles.
-
The agreement promotes reciprocal trade and job creation, reducing non-tariff barriers and aligning with broader protectionist measures like the April 2025 global tariff. It marks a strategic step in reshaping U.S. trade policy post-2024.
