US President Donald Trump will propose a deferral of tariffs after an appeal from automakers. This was reported by Bloomberg, reports UNN.
Details
According to the publication, this step by Trump will remove some fees on foreign parts for cars and trucks manufactured in the United States. Imported cars will also receive a deferral from individual tariffs on aluminum and steel, which is an attempt to prevent the imposition of multiple fees on top of each other.
This agreement is a great victory for the president's trade policy regarding the reward of companies engaged in production in the United States. It also provides opportunities for manufacturers who are willing to invest in America and expand their domestic production
The expected changes will occur shortly before the 25% tariff on foreign auto parts takes effect on May 3. This turn will also be the latest evolution in Trump's ever-changing trade strategy – he previously decided to suspend tariff increases on dozens of trading partners to allow time for negotiations.
In addition, Trump has a separate intention to ensure that imported cars are not subject to double duties, as well as pay other fees on steel and aluminum.
