United States President Donald Trump announced the framework of a trade deal between the US and the United Kingdom, which re-sets US tariffs on most UK goods at 10 percent, on Thursday.
“For so many years, everybody talked and talked about a deal,” Trump said in a display of warmth towards his British counterpart. “It’s now been done with us.” He added that there was an “external and internal bond” between the two countries. It had been “an honour” doing business with the UK, he said.
