WASHINGTON: US president Donald Trump says he isn’t considering a pause on his plan to implement sweeping additional tariffs on dozens of countries despite outreach from trading partners eager to avoid the levies, while still signalling he could be open to some negotiations.
“We’re not looking at that,” Trump said on Monday while meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Oval Office.
