President Donald Trump announced on Thursday the framework of a trade agreement with the United Kingdom, according to CNBC. The deal is the first since imposing new blanket tariffs earlier this year. Trump said the deal will boost U.S. exports by expanding market access and removing unfair trade barriers in the U.K. Trump called the deal “full and comprehensive,” touting “billions” in export potential for U.S. agriculture and manufacturing. A spokesperson for Prime Minister Starmer said trade talks with the U.S. are progressing quickly and affirmed the U.S. as a vital ally, with an update expected later.
