Foreign media: Trump asks countries to make "best offers" by Wednesday

On June 3, according to a letter seen by Reuters, < b > the Trump administration wants countries involved in high-level tariff talks to come up with their "best offers" on trade talks by Wednesday . The move comes as the White House seeks to accelerate trade talks ahead of a July deadline. Documents show that there is a sense of urgency within the US administration to complete deals within tight deadlines. Despite repeated promises by officials such as White House economic adviser Hassett that multiple deals are close, the US has so far reached only one deal with one major trading partner, the UK. Even so, the limited deal is more of a framework for ongoing negotiations than a final deal. The letter stated that < b > the United States wants countries to list the best options in a number of key areas, including tariff and quota preferences for the purchase of industrial and agricultural products and plans for non-tariff barriers. The letter also said that the United States will evaluate the responses of all parties within a few days and propose a "range of possible solutions", which may include reciprocal tariff rates. It is not clear which countries the letter will be sent to, but the target is those countries that are actively negotiating. It is reported that the United States is currently in active negotiations with countries and regions such as the European Union, Japan, Vietnam and India.
