President Trump and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer unveiled a limited trade deal Thursday that keeps 10% tariffs on British exports but lowers U.S. duties on UK cars and cuts average UK tariffs on U.S. goods to 1.8%, calling it a “historic” step forward.
U.S. President Donald Trump and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer have announced a limited bilateral trade deal aimed at easing tensions and boosting trade between the two allies.
The agreement, unveiled during a White House press briefing, keeps Trump’s 10% tariffs on British exports intact but provides new access for agricultural products and significantly lowers U.S. tariffs on British car imports.
British tariffs on U.S. goods will drop to an average of 1.8%, down from 5.1%. “It opens up a tremendous market for us,” Trump said, positioning the deal as a model for future trade negotiations.
Starmer, speaking via teleconference, called the agreement “a really fantastic, historic day,” highlighting its potential to create and protect jobs while expanding market access for both sides.
This deal is the first in a series of targeted trade pacts Trump aims to finalize after launching sweeping new tariffs last month affecting dozens of countries. Negotiations with the EU, China, and others are reportedly ongoing.
