Over 50 Countries Seek Tariff Talks With Trump Administration, Officials Say
by Emmitt Barry, Worthy News Correspondent
(Worthy News) – Trump administration officials said Sunday that over 50 countries have reached out to negotiate after President Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs rattled markets, fueled recession fears, and disrupted global trade.
Over the weekend, Trump posted on Truth Social, “WE WILL WIN. HANG TOUGH, it won’t be easy,” as his Cabinet and economic advisers took to the Sunday talk shows to defend the tariffs and minimize concerns over global fallout.
In an interview on ABC’s “This Week,” White House National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett said Trump’s tariff strategy is already yielding results.
“I got a report from the USTR last night that more than 50 countries have reached out to the president to begin a negotiation,” Hassett said. “They’re doing that because they understand that they bear a lot of the tariff. And so, I don’t think that you’re going to see a big effect on the consumer in the U.S… They’ve been dumping goods into the country in order to create jobs, say, in China.”
On Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” White House Senior Counselor for Trade and Manufacturing Peter Navarro dismissed the idea that simply removing tariffs on the U.S. would be enough.
“This is not a negotiation. This is a national emergency based on a trade deficit that’s gotten out of control because of cheating,” Navarro said when asked whether Vietnam could avoid U.S. tariffs by lifting its own.
However, he added, “We’re always willing to listen. That’s what Donald Trump does best. But I want to just say to the world here, if you want to come and talk to us, don’t say you want to lower their tariffs and be done with it. It’s the non-tariff cheating. Stop manipulating your currency. Stop dumping stuff in. Europe, take your 19 percent VAT tax down to zero. Don’t put these fake agricultural standards to keep out our pork and our dairy and our chickens. And, Vietnam, don’t dump shrimp into our markets and put the good people of Louisiana on our coast out of work. This is what people have to understand. It’s the non-tariff cheating that matters the most.”
As stock markets fell and fears of rising consumer prices and a deepening trade war grew, Trump urged Americans to stay strong in a Saturday post on Truth Social.
“China has been hit much harder than the USA, not even close. They, and many other nations, have treated us unsustainably badly. We have been the dumb and helpless ‘whipping post,’ but not any longer,” he wrote. “We are bringing back jobs and businesses like never before. Already, more than FIVE TRILLION DOLLARS OF INVESTMENT, and rising fast! THIS IS AN ECONOMIC REVOLUTION, AND WE WILL WIN. HANG TOUGH, it won’t be easy, but the end result will be historic. We will, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!”
