TRUMP SIGNS MEMO TO IMPLEMENT RECIPROCAL TARIFF PLAN, TARGETING COUNTRIES WITH LARGE U.S. TRADE SURPLUSES
TRUMP: SENDING COMMODITIES THROUGH OTHER COUNTRIES TO AVOID TARIFFS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED
TRUMP: TARIFF PLAN WILL INCLUDE TARIFFS, VAT, AND OTHER BARRIERS; VAT TAX WILL BE VIEWED AS A TARIFF; WILL CONSIDER COUNTRIES THAT USE VAT; PROVISIONS WILL BE MADE FOR NON-MONETARY TARIFFS
WH OFFICIALS HOPE TO DISCUSS WITH OTHER COUNTRIES, AND IF OTHER COUNTRIES WANT TO LOWER TARIFFS, TRUMP IS VERY WILLING TO LOWER TARIFFS
TRUMP: EXPECTS A LOT OF COUNTRIES' TARIFFS TO STAY THE SAME. I DON'T EXPECT ANY EXEMPTIONS OR WAIVERS.
LUTHNICK: TRUMP MAY LAUNCH A RECIPROCAL PLAN BEFORE APRIL 2
WH official: Tariffs would be customized for each country, meant to offset not just their own levies on US goods but also non-tariff barriers nations impose in the form of unfair subsidies, regulations, VAT, exchange rates & other factors that act to limit US trade.
*Trump's decision not to implement tariffs right away could be seen as an opening bid for negotiation.
