The administration of Donald Trump plans to sign 90 trade deals in 90 days but has encountered obstacles at the outset. Problems include a staffing shortage, scattered attention across many areas, and a lack of a clear strategy.
Maros Sefcovic, a representative of the EU, arrived in Washington for tariff negotiations. The chief tariff negotiator, Scott Beasley, is currently in Buenos Aires supporting Argentina's economic reforms.Some analysts express doubts about reaching full-fledged agreements in such a short Time. Trump has given a 90-day pause on new tariffs for countries to make agreements. However, the conflict with China, which has implemented mirror tariffs, complicates the situation. Key positions in the Treasury and USTR remain vacant, leading to an overload of officials. There is no unity among White House trade advisors, which also complicates the process. Slow negotiations are taking place even with allies, such as the United Kingdom and Australia.
