<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The Trump administration will adjust 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum, and will lower auto tariffs from 25% to 10% on the first 100,000 British vehicles sent to the U.S., Trump said.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The agreement left in place 10% tariffs that the U.S. slapped last month on imported goods from nearly all foreign countries.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">In exchange, the U.K. will ease trade barriers targeting a set of products, including ethanol, beef and machinery, among other products, Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick said. That additional market access amounts to $5 billion worth of trade, the White House said.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The U.S. also secured a $10 billion purchase of Boeing airplane parts and a &#8220;secure supply chain&#8221; for pharmaceuticals, according to information shared by Trump on social media on Thursday.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The U.K. will fast-track U.S. imports through customs inspection, Trump said.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The U.S.-U.K. agreement left some details to be worked out later, setting the two countries on a path toward a wider deal, Trump said.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Addressing reports at the Oval Office on Thursday, Trump touted the agreement.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">&#8220;This deal is working out for both countries,&#8221; Trump said, noting the &#8220;final details are being written up.&#8221;</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">In remarks made over a speaker phone on Trump&#8217;s desk, U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer said negotiations between the two sides moved toward an agreement in recent weeks.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">&#8220;This is a really important deal,&#8221; Starmer said. &#8220;There are no two countries that are closer than our two countries.&#8221;</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Starmer acknowledged some details still need to be &#8220;ironed out.&#8221;</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The roughly $68 billion in imported goods from the U.K. last year accounted for about 2% of U.S. imported goods, U.S. data <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://ustr.gov/countries-regions/europe-middle-east/europe/united-kingdom" target="_blank">showed</a>. The U.S. exported nearly $80 billion worth of products to the U.K. last year, which accounted for almost 4% of U.S. goods exports.</p>

<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Dozens of nations face potential so-called &#8220;reciprocal tariffs,&#8221; but the U.K. is not among them, since the U.K. buys more than it sells to the U.S. The White House paused the reciprocal tariffs until July, as it seeks to strike trade agreements with dozens of countries.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Testifying before a House subcommittee on Tuesday, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the Trump administration had commenced negotiations with 17 of the top 18 U.S. trade partners, excluding China. Those countries account for the vast majority of U.S. foreign trade, Bessent said.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Bessent is set to travel to Geneva, Switzerland, for initial trade negotiations with China on Saturday. The U.S. last month imposed 145% tariffs on Chinese goods, prompting 125% retaliatory tariffs on U.S. products.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">On Thursday, Trump said the negotiations between the U.S. and China would be &#8220;very substantive,&#8221; voicing a willingness to lower the tariffs on Chinese goods.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">&#8220;It couldn&#8217;t go higher,&#8221; Trump said. &#8220;You know it&#8217;s coming down.&#8221;</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Trump&#8217;s tariff escalation last month roiled markets and triggered <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://abcnews.go.com/Business/recession-risks-rising-economists/story?id=119626246" target="_blank">recession</a> warnings on Wall Street.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Speaking at a press conference in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, Fed Chair Jerome Powell <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/fed-expected-hold-interest-rates-steady-defying-trump/story?id=121510718" target="_blank">warned</a> Trump&#8217;s tariff policy could cause higher inflation and an economic slowdown.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">&#8220;If the large increase in tariffs that have been announced are sustained, they&#8217;re likely to generate a rise in inflation and a slowdown of economic growth,&#8221; Powell said Wednesday.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC eTIW sUzSN ">Still, key indicators suggest the economy remains in &#8220;solid shape&#8221;, Powell said.</p>
