The British government has responded to a U.S. court ruling that blocked President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs, describing it as a domestic matter for Washington but emphasizing that the case remains in its early legal stages.
“These are matters for the United States to determine domestically and we note this is only the first stage of legal proceedings,” a UK government spokesperson said on Thursday.
The statement comes after a U.S. federal court issued an injunction halting the implementation of Trump’s recently imposed across-the-board tariffs, which had affected a wide range of imported goods, including those from traditional allies like the UK and the European Union.
The UK government reiterated its position as a key trade partner with the U.S., highlighting that it was the first country to secure a bilateral deal aimed at shielding British industries — particularly autos and steel — from the brunt of the tariff measures.
“We are working to ensure that businesses can benefit from the deal as quickly as possible,” the spokesperson added.
The court ruling represents a potential setback for Trump’s trade agenda but also opens a complex legal path that could stretch over months. British officials have signaled they will continue monitoring the situation closely as legal and political developments unfold in Washington.
