President Donald Trump said he wasn’t considering a pause on his plan to implement sweeping additional tariffs on dozens of countries despite outreach from trading partners to eager to avoid the levies, while still signaling he could be open to some negotiations.
“We’re not looking at that,” Trump said on Monday while meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Oval Office.
Trump said tariffs were “very important” to his economic agenda — and would generally remain — while opening the door to “fair deal and good deals with every country.” “There can be permanent tariffs and there can also be negotiations because there are things that we need beyond tariffs,” he added.
