Japan Negotiates With Trump Team After Trump Tariffs Pause #trumptariffs #trump #japan #tariffimpact

Japan is intensifying trade negotiations with the United States following President Donald Trump’s temporary pause on new tariffs, aiming to secure relief from existing duties that have significantly impacted its export-driven economy.

In early April 2025, the Trump administration announced a 90-day suspension on proposed tariff hikes, maintaining a 10% universal rate and a 25% duty on Japanese automobiles and auto parts. This move was part of a broader strategy to encourage trade negotiations with multiple countries.
