Nearly 50 countries have stepped forward to explore new tariff agreements with the United States, a promising sign of increasing global cooperation in trade and economic growth, according to U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer.
This growing interest reflects a shared vision among nations to foster trade environments that are mutually beneficial and sustainable. Countries such as Argentina, Vietnam, and Israel have already shown willingness to reduce both tariff and non-tariff barriers—highlighting a spirit of partnership that supports open markets and supply chain resilience.
“These are clearly encouraging moves,” Greer shared in his written remarks. “While rebalancing trade dynamics takes time, the direction we are headed in is constructive and promising.”
The announcement follows increased outreach from global partners seeking to realign trade relationships under new frameworks. Many are working to modernize outdated agreements in ways that reflect today’s interconnected economies, aiming to ensure fairer access and more diversified market participation.
Greer also noted examples of trade-driven investment shifts, such as manufacturing expansions in the U.S., which serve as early indicators of the positive economic ripple effects that come from fair and forward-thinking trade practices.
By engaging in transparent, mutually respectful tariff negotiations, countries are helping lay the foundation for a more robust global trade ecosystem—one that benefits producers, consumers, and communities alike.
