Trump says tariffs will not be suspended

BlockBeats News: On April 8th, US President Trump stated on April 7th local time that he will not suspend the so-called "reciprocal tariffs" policy. After meeting with visiting Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu at the White House on the same day, Trump told the media that he is not considering suspending tariff policies at the moment, and many economic leaders are seeking negotiations with him. He believes that enforcing tariff policies and engaging in negotiations are not contradictory. Trump also said that he rejected the proposal made by the European Union earlier that day to waive tariffs with the United States, stating, 'No, this is not enough at all.' 'They are deceiving us on trade issues.'. Netanyahu told the media after the talks that Israel will eliminate its trade deficit with the United States as soon as possible. According to US government data, the bilateral trade volume between the US and Israel will be approximately $37 billion in 2024, resulting in a trade surplus of $7.4 billion with the US. (Golden Ten)
