White House: More Than 50 Countries Ask US to Solve Tariff Issues

The White House released a message on the 6th saying that more than 50 countries around the world have approached the US government for negotiations to solve the tariff policy implemented by US President Donald Trump.

Kevin Hassett, director of the National Economic Council, said in an interview with ABC Television that more than 50 countries are trying to negotiate with the president about the tariff status.

US President Donald Trump signed a decree imposing "reciprocal" tariffs on goods from other countries. The basic minimum tax rate is 10%, and most countries face higher rates. The Office of the US Trade Representative explained that this was calculated based on the trade deficit indicators between the US and specific countries, aiming to find balance rather than a deficit.
