Cabinet officials in US tariff talks say meetings ‘went well’

Quick Summary:

PHILIPPINE economic officials said talks with Washington over tariff negotiations "went very well,” as the interests of Philippine industries were at the center of the discussions.

Go said the goal of the Philippine team for the said meeting in Washington is to forge a partnership that benefits both sides and at the same time supports the growth of the Philippine industries.

However, US President Donald Trump announced last April 9 a 90-day pause on implementing steeper reciprocal tariffs on imports from most of its trade partners, thus maintaining the blanket global 10-percent tariffs on these countries—except for China.
