The Government wants to “go further in terms of the commercial relationship with the United States,” said Interior Minister, as an American economist warned that the agreement reached Donald Trump this week “is not worth the document in which he has written.”
Joseph Stiglitz told Sky News that if the United Kingdom had worked with the EU in an agreement: “You could have done it better than you have done.”
On Friday, Donald Trump's press secretary insisted that the president will remain firm in the Manta of 10% of the rate of the majority of the United Kingdom imports to the United States, telling journalists who is “committed” to the tax.
It occurred after Thursday agreement that reduced taxes on car imports from 100,000 a year from 27.5% to 10%, and also reduced tariffs on steel and aluminum through quotas.
When asked if Trump is taking the United Kingdom to take a walk, Mrs. Cooper pressed the importance of the agreement for car manufacturers such as Jaguar Land Rover.
“Clearly, we want to go further in terms of the commercial relationship with the United States,” Sky News said on Sunday morning with Trevor Phillips.
“We are an external commercial nation, so trade is important,” he said, while refusing to enter an “executive comment” about discussions with the EU.
Speaking to the same program, Mr. Stiglitz said that “any agreement with Trump is not worth the document in which it is written.”
When asked if the United Kingdom should focus on building its relationship with the EU, the economist said “much.”
He added: “My opinion is that if I had worked with the EU to get a good deal, I could have done it better than it has done.”
The Secretary of the Interior of the Shadows said that it is “good that the terrible punitive tariffs” have facilitated, but described this week's agreement as “a very limited agreement.”
“What was agreed last week is not a comprehensive commercial agreement,” said Chris Philp to Sky News Show.
“[It] It is a very narrow treatment, speaking mainly of rates.
“While it is good that the terrible punitive tariffs that have been in force for a few weeks have been facilitated, as the governor of the Bank of England Andrew Bailey said, the level of tariffs that are now being charged in exports of the United Kingdom that go to the United States are higher under this new agreement, the so -called agreement, than at the beginning of the year.”
