Administration modifies scope of reciprocal tariffs
The White House Sept. 5 issued an executive order modifying the scope of reciprocal tariffs announced in April to establish a framework of trade deals with international partners on certain goods such as critical minerals and pharmaceutical products.
The order established a Potential Tariff Adjustments for Aligned Partners Annex, consisting of a list of products to which President Trump would be willing to apply the “most favored nation” tariff, pending any future reciprocal trade deal. Pharmaceuticals and their ingredients were one of four product categories listed.
