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. Thanks for tuning in.
