101 - The U.S. Trade Representative

Jamieson Greer, the U.S. Trade Representative, has been at the center of several major trade developments in recent weeks as the Trump administration continues reshaping America's global trade relationships.Most recently, Greer announced a significant framework agreement with Switzerland and Liechtenstein that reduces reciprocal tariffs from 39 percent to 15 percent, bringing them in line with European Union rates. This deal, reached on November 14, 2025, represents a major breakthrough after months of tension. Switzerland had faced some of the highest tariffs imposed by the administration, with Swiss President Karin Maria Keller-Sutter having called the earlier tariffs incomprehensible and made an unsuccessful trip to Washington to negotiate relief. The new agreement includes zeroed-out duties on many American products and commitments from Switzerland for approximately 200 billion dollars in future investments.Beyond Switzerland, Greer has been instrumental in negotiating several other bilateral trade deals. On November 13, the Trump administration announced reciprocal trade agreement frameworks with Argentina, Guatemala, Ecuador, and El Salvador. These agreements focus on reducing tariffs on goods not grown, mined, or naturally produced in America, reflecting a broader pattern of trade negotiations Greer has been orchestrating.Greer has also been managing the complex U.S. relationship with the European Union. According to meetings attended by Greer and Commerce Secretary Howard Latnick in Brussels, European officials have expressed ongoing concerns about the 15 percent baseline duty on most European products that took effect in August. The European Commission continues seeking more favorable treatment for hundreds of strategic product categories, indicating that negotiations between the U.S. and EU remain unsettled and incomplete.In his public statements, Greer has defended the administration's approach, claiming that the new framework represents a shift toward a more balanced global trading system. He has also indicated that tariff exemptions are being enacted for goods like coffee and bananas that are not available domestically, arguing that a critical mass of bilateral trade deals has been achieved.The Trade Representative's role has expanded significantly under the Trump administration's focus on what it calls reciprocal trade policy. Greer must balance the administration's aggressive tariff approach with the need to negotiate agreements with major trading partners, a task that continues to evolve as various countries respond to American trade demands.Thank you for tuning in and please remember to subscribe.

Jamieson Greer, the U.S. Trade Representative confirmed by the Senate in February 2025, continues to play a central role in implementing President Trump's aggressive trade agenda as we move into late November 2025. Recent developments show Greer negotiating significant trade agreements and managing the complex landscape of tariff policy that has defined this year.In mid-November, Greer announced a landmark framework agreement with Switzerland and Liechtenstein that reduced reciprocal tariffs on these countries from 39 percent down to 15 percent, bringing them in line with European Union rates. This deal, finalized on November 14, represents a major negotiation victory as it includes commitments from Switzerland and Liechtenstein to zero out duties on many American products and invest approximately 200 billion dollars in the United States. The agreement notably addresses pharmaceutical exports, which account for roughly half of Swiss goods shipped to America.Around the same time, Greer secured trade frameworks with four Latin American nations. On November 13, Trump announced new reciprocal trade agreements with Argentina, Guatemala, Ecuador, and El Salvador. These deals allow for tariff exemptions on goods like coffee and bananas that are not produced domestically in the United States, marking what Greer described as reaching a critical mass of bilateral trade deals that justify broader tariff relief.Greer's work extends to ongoing negotiations with the European Union, where tensions remain high over tariff levels. In late November, Greer attended meetings with EU trade ministers in Brussels where European officials continued pressing concerns about the 15 percent baseline duty imposed on most European products in August. The European Commission seeks more favorable treatment for hundreds of strategic product categories, but these talks have yet to produce concrete commitments from Washington to ease tariff rates.The Trade Representative has also been instrumental in managing the China trade relationship. Following the one-year trade truce announced by Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping on November 1, Greer has worked to implement the framework that lowers tariffs, pauses China's rare earth export restrictions, and addresses issues surrounding soybeans and fentanyl. He has publicly defended the administration's tariff policies, arguing they have strengthened America's economic position.As the Supreme Court deliberates whether the president possesses the authority to impose such sweeping tariffs independently of Congress, Greer remains focused on bilateral negotiations that shape America's trade relationships heading into 2026. His role continues to be pivotal in translating Trump's trade vision into concrete international agreements.Thank you for tuning in and remember to subscribe.

Ambassador Jamieson Greer, confirmed as the twentieth United States Trade Representative on February twenty-seventh of this year, continues to shape American trade policy with aggressive tariff strategies and international negotiations. As a key member of President Trump's cabinet, Greer has prioritized putting America first on trade by combating what the administration considers unfair foreign trade practices.Recent weeks have seen significant activity from Greer's office. Just this week, the United States sought Mexico's review of alleged denials of workers' rights at multiple facilities including Freixenet and Corporacion de Occidente, demonstrating the administration's focus on labor standards in trade relationships. The office also announced extensions to exclusions from China Section three hundred and one tariffs related to forced technology transfer investigations, continuing the hard line stance toward Chinese trade practices.Tariff revenue has reached record levels, climbing to thirty-four point two billion dollars in October alone. Through fiscal year twenty twenty-six, which began October first, the United States has collected forty-one point six billion dollars. These mounting revenues have fueled discussions about potential dividend payments to American families. Greer addressed inflation concerns about proposed two thousand dollar payments to low and middle income Americans, stating the move would not be an ongoing welfare program and would not exacerbate inflation. He emphasized that American families would appreciate the relief while maintaining that it would not substantially change the overall macroeconomic picture.Greer's trade deals have expanded significantly across regions. Recent statements from his office praised American textile manufacturers and industry leaders for deals with Korea, Switzerland, and Latin American partners. The administration has also negotiated frameworks for agreements on reciprocal trade with El Salvador, Argentina, Ecuador, and Guatemala. Earlier in October, American farmers and producers applauded trade deals with Southeast Asian countries. These negotiations reflect Greer's broader strategy to expand market access for American-made products and ensure balanced trading relationships.His background proves instrumental to his current role. Before becoming Trade Representative, Greer served as Chief of Staff to Ambassador Robert Lighthizer during President Trump's first term, where he was deeply involved in implementing tariffs on China and negotiating the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. Outside government service, he worked as a partner at a Washington law firm focusing on international trade and national security issues. Greer earned his law degree from the University of Virginia and holds advanced degrees in global business law from institutions in Paris.The Supreme Court is currently weighing whether the president can continue imposing broad tariffs without congressional approval, adding legal complexity to this administration's trade agenda. As these challenges develop, Greer remains focused on what the administration frames as correcting years of unfair global trade relationships.Thank you for tuning in and please remember to subscribe.

Ambassador Jamieson Greer continues to lead U.S. trade policy as the 20th United States Trade Representative, and recent developments show his office has been actively pursuing reciprocal trade agreements and addressing worker rights concerns. Just this week, on November 26th, the office announced investigations into alleged denials of workers' rights at multiple facilities in Mexico, including operations at Freixenet, Corporación de Occidente, and Yazaki. These actions reflect Greer's commitment to ensuring fair labor practices across trading partners.The Trump administration's tariff strategy remains a central focus under Greer's leadership. According to the Treasury Department, the U.S. collected a record 34.2 billion dollars in tariff revenue in October alone, with total duty revenue reaching 215.2 billion dollars in fiscal year 2025. So far in the current fiscal year starting October 1st, the government has already collected 41.6 billion dollars. Greer has defended these tariffs, dismissing concerns that they would fuel inflation. He stated that potential one-time 2,000 dollar dividend payments to American families would provide relief rather than exacerbate price pressures. He emphasized this is not an ongoing welfare program but rather a way to share the tariff revenue benefits with working Americans.Recent trade negotiations show progress on multiple fronts. Greer issued statements supporting historic deals with Switzerland and Liechtenstein, as well as frameworks for reciprocal trade agreements with El Salvador, Argentina, Ecuador, and Guatemala. The office also announced trade agreements with Southeast Asian countries and South Korea, garnering praise from American farmers, producers, and industry leaders. Additionally, Greer issued a statement on a motor vehicle safety standards agreement with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.On the China front, the office extended exclusions from Section 301 tariffs related to forced technology transfer investigations while also initiating a new Section 301 investigation into China's implementation of the Phase One Agreement. The trade representative's office also suspended action in investigations targeting China's maritime, logistics, and shipbuilding sectors.European concerns about U.S. tariffs have also emerged recently. Spain's Economy Minister requested exemptions for olive oil and other Spanish products from the 15 percent tariff on European Union imports, warning that the measure could harm producers on both sides of the Atlantic. Spain is the world's second largest olive oil producer but relies heavily on exports to meet American demand.Throughout his tenure, Greer has prioritized what the administration calls an America First approach to trade, focusing on combating what it views as unfair foreign trade practices and expanding market access for American products. His work continues as trade disputes and negotiations remain active globally.Thank you for tuning in. Please be sure to subscribe for the latest updates on U.S. trade policy and economic news.

U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer has been in the spotlight this week as key negotiations unfold between the United States and the European Union in Brussels. According to Bloomberg, Greer, along with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, is conducting his first series of talks with EU trade ministers since a major trade agreement was signed last July. Under the previous deal, the United States imposed a fifteen percent tariff on numerous European products, while the European Union committed to removing some tariffs on American agriculture, food, and certain industrial goods. Both parties agreed to further lower trade barriers on EU steel and aluminum, but progress has been slow.As the talks got underway, EU officials stressed that the main objective was to review the current status of transatlantic trade relations rather than expect an immediate breakthrough on steel and aluminum tariffs. Maros Sefcovic, the EU Commissioner for Trade and Economic Security, said the meeting’s agenda was focused on evaluating the state of play and conducting a political assessment of EU-U.S. relations.One of the most pressing issues brought to the table was Washington’s recent decision to expand its fifty percent tariff on aluminum and steel imports, a move that has raised concerns in Brussels. The United States maintains that the European Parliament has not formally approved previous commitments, while the American side continues to urge the EU to soften its digital and environmental regulatory obligations.According to the German press agency dpa, Greer voiced strong concerns about the EU Digital Markets Act and Digital Services Act, arguing that these regulations disproportionately target U.S. tech giants. He commented that enforcement of these laws is often aggressive and can result in steep fines for American companies. Germany shares some of these reservations, with Economy Minister Katherina Reiche noting that Berlin wants less restrictive digital rules and greater access for artificial intelligence.Negotiations also touched on the EU’s pledge to purchase seven hundred fifty billion dollars worth of U.S. energy by the end of President Donald Trump's term, in exchange for the lower import tariffs. EU imports of liquefied natural gas from the U.S. have risen to sixty percent, signaling progress on energy cooperation.Washington has made it clear that no further tariff relief will be offered unless the EU moves to cut levies on U.S. industrial and agricultural imports. Greer indicated that progress on both sides would be required for any new agreements.Thank you for tuning in and be sure to subscribe for more updates.

U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer has been at the center of high-level trade discussions this week in Brussels, as the United States and European Union assess the progress and future direction of their trade relationship. The meeting marks the first major talks since the July agreement, which set a new base tariff of fifteen percent on most EU imports to the United States while the EU agreed to remove tariffs on selected American agricultural, food, and industrial products according to Bloomberg. Both sides are now reviewing implementation and exploring further tariff cuts, particularly for steel and aluminum goods. Washington has pressed the European Union to accelerate its promised removals of tariffs, arguing that approvals have stalled within EU institutions. At the same time, American negotiators, including Greer, raised concerns about the Digital Services Act and Digital Markets Act, critical elements of the EU’s technology regulation that U.S. officials say unfairly target American firms. Jamieson Greer described the enforcement of these digital laws as aggressive and punitive, with high fines that often hit U.S. companies such as Google, Amazon, Apple, and Microsoft the hardest, a position echoed by Washington and some European ministers. In exchange for relief on steel and aluminum tariffs, the United States has asked the EU to consider revising its digital rules to be less restrictive. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told EU officials that a balanced compromise on digital regulations would enable more progress on tariff reductions. This is especially important for German manufacturers, who are eager to access U.S. technology markets and advocate for greater adoption of artificial intelligence across industries.Progress since the summer agreement is notable. EU energy purchases from the United States have reached two hundred billion dollars, helping fulfill commitments to invest in American energy. The share of U.S. liquefied natural gas in European markets has also grown from forty-five to sixty percent, with additional investments totaling over one hundred fifty billion dollars since January, as reported by Deutsche Presse-Agentur.However, significant gaps remain. EU Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic emphasized that the talks remain focused on reviewing bilateral relations and resolving outstanding issues. EU officials have pushed for the U.S. administration to remove the expanded fifty percent tariff applied to steel and aluminum, but so far, the path to a comprehensive tariff agreement appears slow, according to Euractiv.Listeners, thank you for tuning in and remember to subscribe.

Over the past week, Jamieson Greer has taken center stage in major trade developments as the U.S. Trade Representative. Greer has been leading critical talks in Brussels with European Union officials following a two-month pause in negotiations. According to reports from Fox News and international news agencies, the discussions have focused on assessing the progress of a sweeping deal made earlier this year, where the European Union agreed to eliminate tariffs on ninety-nine percent of industrial goods imported from the United States and expand access for American agricultural products. Greer has confirmed that European lawmakers have started the legislative process to implement those commitments and emphasized that the current phase is about ensuring full follow-through before exploring any new arrangements.Greer also highlighted persistent sticking points, particularly non-tariff barriers that restrict U.S. goods in European markets. These issues, which involve complex regulations and standards beyond tariffs, remain a challenge even as formal import duties fall. He has pressed for reciprocal trade benefits, pointing out that the United States faces a longstanding annual trade deficit with the European Union, which sends two hundred forty billion dollars more in goods to the U.S. than it receives.A headline-grabbing proposal emerged from these negotiations: President Trump’s floated plan to issue two-thousand dollar payments to American households funded by tariff revenues. Greer addressed this on Fox and Friends Weekend, explaining that this would be a one-time payment, not a recurring welfare program, and dismissed concerns about it fueling inflation. He stated this is real money coming into the Treasury and that American families are likely to welcome the financial relief, but he does not see it as affecting the broader macroeconomic picture. According to the Treasury Department, tariff revenues reached two hundred fifteen billion dollars in fiscal year twenty twenty-five, with over forty billion already collected in fiscal year twenty twenty-six. Trump has indicated these funds could begin reaching Americans by next year and has suggested that any surplus may also help address the national debt.These developments are unfolding while the Supreme Court reviews the legality of President Trump’s broader trade measures, a decision that could shape the future direction of U.S. trade policy. Greer said that he is focused on making sure the July trade pact is fully enforced and that American businesses and workers receive the promised benefits, while also remaining open to future discussions with European partners.Thank you for tuning in and please remember to subscribe.

Listeners the latest news from Brussels is that the United States Trade Representative Jamieson Greer is leading intensive negotiations with European Union officials this week. Trade talks between the United States and the European Union have resumed after a two month pause with both sides hoping to resolve key differences on tariffs and non tariff barriers according to the Emirates News Agency and the Herald Globe. Greer has highlighted the importance of these meetings for American businesses operating across Europe emphasizing that progress is being made on several fronts. A central focus of the talks is the implementation of the agreement reached in July which reduced tariffs on industrial goods nearly to zero and expanded market access for American agricultural products. Greer told Fox News that European legislative processes are underway to fulfill these commitments and said that the United States is closely monitoring the progress. He also noted that new European investments in the United States are contributing to job growth for American workers.One of the main sticking points remains the issue of so called non tariff barriers that block American goods even when tariffs are reduced. Greer explained that these are often technical regulations or rules that can effectively exclude U S products from European markets. Addressing these complex issues is a priority for U S negotiators during the current round of discussions. Another headline making development is President Donald Trump’s proposal for two thousand dollar tariff checks to American families funded directly from tariff revenues. As reported by Fox News and AOL, Greer defended the proposal against concerns about inflation noting that this would be a one time payment and not an ongoing program. Fiscal year two thousand twenty five saw duty revenues climb to over two hundred fifteen billion dollars with more than forty billion collected in the first months of the new fiscal year. Greer said that the decision on possible payments will be made working with Congress but emphasized that such checks could offer meaningful relief to families. He also expressed confidence that this measure would not alter the overall economic picture or fuel further inflation. The proposal comes as the Supreme Court begins reviewing legal challenges to the administration’s tariff actions which could shape the future of American trade policy.The return to direct talks in Brussels and the possibility of American tariff dividend checks are shaping up to be crucial developments for U S trade policy in the closing weeks of two thousand twenty five.

Ambassador Jamieson Greer is the current United States Trade Representative, confirmed by the US Senate earlier this year and now shaping major new trade initiatives. In the past several days, Ambassador Greer has been at the center of a flurry of announcements and developments that may interest listeners following international trade policy.According to an official statement from the Office of the US Trade Representative, Ambassador Greer announced the signing of a landmark agreement between the United States and Saudi Arabia addressing motor vehicle safety standards. This news was reported by both the US Trade Representative’s official press releases and global analysis outlets. The agreement ensures that American-made cars exported to Saudi Arabia will meet critical safety benchmarks set by both countries, potentially opening Saudi markets further to US auto exports and setting a precedent for regulatory cooperation on vehicle standards. As first reported on November nineteenth, this step is framed as part of efforts to give American manufacturers greater access to foreign markets while promoting robust product safety and quality for consumers overseas.In related regional news, Saskatchewan’s Premier just returned from a high-level trade mission in Washington where he met personally with Ambassador Greer and several cabinet officials. Talks focused on cross-border economic relationships and minimizing disruptions, demonstrating the vital role of the Trade Representative in maintaining Canada US trade ties, especially for agricultural and industrial goods. This diplomatic channel remains critical for the largest US trading partnership.Ambassador Greer also recently helped lead the fourth United States Mexico Canada Agreement Small and Medium Sized Enterprise Dialogue in Phoenix. There, leaders from all three countries discussed ways to expand cross border opportunities for smaller businesses, signaling an ongoing commitment from Greer’s office to ensure that companies of every size have a place in global commerce.Beyond North America, Ambassador Greer’s office announced frameworks for reciprocal trade agreements with Switzerland, Liechtenstein, El Salvador, Argentina, Ecuador, and Guatemala. These frameworks are designed to reduce barriers and strengthen economic ties between the US and these nations.According to MLex, trade analysts are also watching the recent pause of enforcement actions against China in the ongoing Section Three Zero One investigation. This temporary suspension relates to China’s maritime, logistics, and shipbuilding sectors, and hints at a possible thaw or renegotiation phase in what has been a high-tension trade relationship. At the same time, American business leaders and policymakers praised recent US trade deals with Korea, Switzerland, and Latin American partners, reflecting industry confidence in Greer’s direction.Thank you for tuning in and be sure to subscribe.

United States Trade Representative Jamieson Greer has been at the center of a series of high-impact diplomatic and economic events in recent days. On November seventeenth, Greer was praised by a coalition of American textile manufacturers, lawmakers, and industry leaders for delivering multiple new trade deals with Korea, Switzerland, and several Latin American countries. These agreements aim to reduce or eliminate tariffs, increase reciprocal market access, and foster future investments valued at close to two hundred billion dollars according to InsideTrade dot com and official statements from the trade representative’s office. The deal with Switzerland and Liechtenstein, for example, cut tariffs from thirty-nine percent to fifteen percent on key Swiss exports such as pharmaceuticals, and introduced zero duties on a wide range of American products.Last week, Ambassador Greer also made headlines after releasing joint fact sheets on the new United States Korea agreement and after announcing finalized trade frameworks with El Salvador, Argentina, Ecuador, and Guatemala. These partnerships focus on removing tariffs for goods not produced competitively in the United States like coffee and bananas, further expanding the scope of trade relief for American consumers and producers.On another front, Greer is preparing for a major meeting with European Union Trade Chief Maros Sefcovic in Brussels on the twenty-third and twenty-fourth of November. Euronews reports that these talks are highly anticipated and may prove contentious. The United States is pressing the European Union to eliminate restrictive legislative measures that Washington views as non-tariff barriers against United States companies, while urging for faster implementation of the July agreement dropping industrial tariffs. American officials are specifically looking to address digital and climate regulations in Europe, supply-chain due diligence laws, and reciprocal steel and aluminum tariffs that remain a sticking point for both sides.These international negotiations follow Greer’s continued stewardship of Section three hundred one investigations into China’s trade practices. Earlier this month, the administration suspended certain trade actions in its inquiry into China’s maritime, logistics, and shipbuilding sectors, signaling a nuanced approach as the two countries review progress on the Phase One Economic Agreement. At the same time, Greer’s office has opened public commentary on these developments and sought Mexico’s review of alleged workers’ rights violations within its border.Listeners, be sure to keep an eye on Ambassador Greer’s upcoming trip to Europe, where the balance of global trade policies and regulatory standards could be further reshaped.

Recent days saw major global trade moves led by US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer. According to the official US Trade Representative press office, Ambassador Greer issued statements just within the past week celebrating significant breakthroughs with Korea, Switzerland, and several Latin American partners. The US finalized frameworks for reciprocal trade with El Salvador, Argentina, Ecuador, and Guatemala. These agreements seek to lower or eliminate tariffs, particularly on goods not widely produced in the US such as coffee and bananas, while boosting American exports and investments in return. American Textile Manufacturers and industry leaders publicly praised the deals, which are expected to open markets and reduce sector-specific duties for American companies.Ambassador Greer also oversaw a new framework with Switzerland and Liechtenstein, a deal that will cut reciprocal tariffs on key exports such as pharmaceuticals and set the stage for substantial future investments, estimated at around two hundred billion dollars. Together, these steps signal a push by the US administration to build momentum on trade deals ahead of this winter’s international economic forums.Greer made headlines again by issuing a joint fact sheet with Korean officials, highlighting fresh progress in market access and digital trade services. The statement coincided with US moves to request a review of labor rights concerns in Mexico and ongoing monitoring of China’s industrial policies, showing trade strategy extends beyond deal-making.Internationally, Greer is in the news for his upcoming meeting with the European Union’s trade chief Maroš Šefčovič in Brussels on November twenty-third. Euronews explains that the talks are expected to be tense as the US presses the EU to ease or drop new regulations on American companies. The US is also advocating for full implementation of an earlier deal with the EU, which proposes to cut most tariffs on American industrial goods to zero while asking the EU to commit to energy purchases and substantial investments in the American economy. Recent European legislative actions on technology firms, supply-chain due diligence, and environmental standards have been a major sticking point, with the US arguing such rules act as hidden trade barriers. The European Parliament remains cautious, with discussions on whether to amend the EU US trade agreement and deliberations on maintaining tariffs for sensitive sectors like steel and aluminum.In summary, US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer’s activity over the past several days underscores an aggressive approach toward boosting American exports, reducing foreign tariffs, pressing for regulatory concessions, and building new global economic alliances. Discussions in Brussels this week are set to be watched closely as they may reset the tone of transatlantic trade in the coming year.Thank you for tuning in and remember to subscribe.

Listeners, in recent days Jamieson Greer as the United States Trade Representative has been at the center of several critical international trade developments, demonstrating an intensive diplomatic schedule and major milestones in economic negotiations. According to Vietnam Plus News, the fifth round of in-person negotiations between Vietnam and the United States on their reciprocal trade agreement wrapped up a three day session in Washington DC from November 12 to November 14. Greer engaged in a pivotal meeting with Vietnam’s Minister of Industry and Trade Nguyen Hong Dien right before the technical negotiations began. Both delegations reported substantial progress on several complex issues including digital trade, services, agriculture, and technical trade barriers. Notably, outstanding differences have narrowed and the talks laid solid groundwork for an eventual comprehensive trade agreement between the two countries. Both sides also agreed to continue discussions online, leading up to a virtual ministerial level negotiation later this month between Greer and Dien, which could be a decisive moment for finalizing the deal.Vietnam News confirmed that the US delegation, led by Greer, praised the Vietnamese team’s creative approach and dedication throughout the process. Feedback from the US side to Vietnamese proposals was generally positive and further steps are possible depending on the negotiation outcomes. The two delegations see the results as fostering a stronger foundation for concluding a comprehensive agreement. Outside of the negotiations, Greer coordinated with other US departments and representatives to support Vietnam’s push for expanded bilateral economic cooperation and investment.Meanwhile, Greer has also made headlines with a major breakthrough in trade talks with Switzerland. According to the Kuwait Times and Daily Sun, the United States reached a new agreement with Switzerland that will sharply reduce tariffs on Swiss goods. Greer stated that the deal essentially dismantles long standing trade barriers and opens new markets for American products, especially in medical devices, pharmaceuticals, and aerospace. The new tariff rate for Swiss imports will be reduced from thirty nine percent to fifteen percent, aligning with European Union levels. Switzerland has pledged to invest at least two hundred billion United States dollars in the US over the coming years, with substantial investments expected as early as next year. These investments will target US manufacturing and technology sectors, providing a boost to job creation and innovation.According to Breaking the News, Greer is also scheduled to visit Europe from November nineteenth to twenty second to meet with European Union Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic. The upcoming trip is expected to involve further talks on tariff cuts and mutual access for US and EU goods. Greer has cautioned the EU against delaying the implementation of agreed tariff reductions, urging prompt action to support transatlantic commerce.In summary, Jamieson Greer’s recent trade negotiation efforts have shown remarkable progress with both Vietnam and Switzerland, while gearing up for additional high stakes discussions in Europe.

Over the last several days, listeners have seen significant activity involving United States Trade Representative Jamieson Greer on the international stage. Late last week, major headlines covered the United States reaching a landmark agreement with Switzerland to reduce tariffs and boost investment. Jamieson Greer, in an interview with CNBC, confirmed that the United States will cut tariffs on Swiss imports from thirty nine percent to fifteen percent, one of the sharpest reductions for any country’s goods in recent memory. This new level matches the European Union’s fifteen percent tariff rate. In return, Switzerland has pledged at least two hundred billion dollars in investments into the United States by twenty twenty eight, with sixty seven billion dollars expected as early as twenty twenty six. US officials emphasized this deal dismantles long-standing trade barriers and is expected to open new American markets. These investments will focus on expanding US manufacturing in pharmaceuticals, medical devices, aerospace, and gold manufacturing. Swiss companies such as Roche, Novartis, ABB, and Stadler are cited as key contributors.Beyond Switzerland, Jamieson Greer led the United States delegation for the fifth round of in-person negotiations with Vietnam on a reciprocal trade agreement. The meetings, held in Washington, D.C. from November twelfth to fourteenth, focused on critical issues such as services, digital trade, agriculture, technical barriers, and sanitary and phytosanitary standards. Both sides reported major progress in narrowing outstanding differences. The Vietnamese Minister of Industry and Trade led the talks for Vietnam and praised the productive working relationship with Greer. According to the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the round’s progress has laid a strong foundation for an early conclusion of the bilateral agreement. The two countries agreed to hold virtual ministerial meetings before the end of the month, with follow-up online sessions scheduled to address remaining issues.On the horizon, Trade Representative Greer is also scheduled to travel to Europe for high-level talks with the European Union Trade Commissioner between November nineteenth and twenty second. Reports indicate he plans to warn the European Union against delaying tariff cuts on American goods and to push for further market access for US exporters.Listeners should keep an eye on these ongoing diplomatic efforts, as the outcomes of these negotiations are expected to shape future trade, investment, and job growth in key sectors in the United States and with important trading partners.Thank you for tuning in and do not forget to subscribe.

Jamieson Greer, the U.S. Trade Representative, continues to play a central role in the Trump administration's aggressive trade policy approach in 2025. As the administration escalates its trade strategy, Greer has been instrumental in shaping and implementing the tariff decisions that are reshaping global commerce.The most significant development centers on the administration's escalating tariff campaign against China. President Trump has imposed a cascading series of tariffs on Chinese imports worth billions of dollars throughout 2025, with the explicit goal of narrowing the substantial U.S. trade deficit. These tariffs span an enormous range of products, from agricultural goods like soybeans to critical technology sectors including semiconductors. The scope and aggressiveness of these measures represent a fundamental shift in how the administration is approaching trade relationships.Greer's office has been coordinating these tariff implementations and managing the complex negotiations surrounding trade policy. As Trade Representative, Greer holds responsibility for advising the President on trade matters and negotiating trade agreements on behalf of the United States. In this capacity, he has been central to developing the rationale behind the tariff escalations and communicating their strategic purpose to Congress, the business community, and international partners.The tariff strategy extends beyond China. The administration under Greer's guidance has signaled its intention to use tariffs as a primary tool for addressing what it views as unfair trade practices and persistent trade imbalances. This represents a significant departure from traditional trade policy approaches and reflects a more protectionist stance toward international commerce.The implications of these policies are far reaching. American businesses dependent on Chinese imports face increased costs, while Chinese exporters are confronted with reduced market access. Other trading partners are also watching closely to see how their own trade relationships with the United States might be affected by this new direction.Greer's role in architecting and implementing these policies has placed him at the forefront of international trade discussions. His decisions and recommendations are shaping not only bilateral relationships but also the broader landscape of global commerce. The Trade Representative office under his leadership continues to navigate the complex terrain of international trade law, tariff structures, and diplomatic considerations as the administration pursues its trade agenda.Thank you for tuning in and please remember to subscribe.

The U S Trade Representative, Jamieson Greer, has been at the center of major trade developments in the past few days. According to Bloomberg, Greer held a key video call with top Swiss officials following a diplomatic visit from leading Swiss industry CEOs to the White House. The meeting was arranged as Switzerland pursues relief from the steep thirty nine percent tariff imposed by the United States on Swiss exports, a rate that is currently higher than any other developed nation. Swiss Federal authorities characterized the discussion as very constructive, highlighting new energy in the bilateral relationship that they attribute to President Trump. The Swiss delegation included figures from some of the country’s most prominent corporations, from luxury watchmakers to commodity traders and gold refiners. While some CEOs welcomed dialogue with the U S, Swatch Group’s Nick Hayek criticized the approach, suggesting that Switzerland should consider stronger retaliatory responses such as cutting investment in the United States or shelving plans to purchase U S military jets.On another major front, the Office of the U S Trade Representative, under Greer’s leadership, announced a significant pause on new tariffs for Chinese shipbuilding and port equipment, as reported by gCaptain. This pause covers ship-to-shore cranes and intermodal chassis, along with fees for Chinese-built merchant vessels docking in U S ports, and is the product of a broader interim agreement between Washington and Beijing. In return, China pledged to halt its retaliatory trade actions. This move has drawn sharp criticism from U S labor unions, including the United Steelworkers and several prominent trade groups, who wrote directly to Greer arguing that suspending these fees will strengthen China’s already dominant role in maritime manufacturing and undermine efforts to revive American shipbuilding. Their response reflects concern that while the deal may ease trade tensions or benefit other sectors, it could come at the cost of U S industrial jobs.In addition, Greer recently launched an investigation into whether China is fulfilling its obligations from an earlier trade agreement negotiated during President Trump’s previous term, according to AOL Finance. The investigation reflects continuing scrutiny of Chinese trade practices and enforcement of existing bilateral deals.These actions highlight an especially active and contentious time for U S trade policy. Multiple fronts are seeing pushback and negotiation, from European exporters facing historic tariffs to ongoing disputes with China’s powerful industrial sectors. As the U S navigates these complex trade relationships under Greer’s stewardship, the resulting decisions are certain to have wide ranging impacts across global industries and domestic stakeholders.Thank you for tuning in and remember to subscribe.
