Some White House officials were shocked by US President Donald Trump's decision to temporarily suspend duties for 75 countries for three months. This was reported on April 10 by The Washington Post (WP).
According to the newspaper, such measures surprised even senior White House politicians. In addition, after the announcement of the suspension of tariffs, presidential aides began to confer on what actions to take next, adds "Газета.Ru ".
It is noted that the country's Finance Minister Scott Bessent and White House press Secretary Caroline Leavitt were convened to discuss this issue.
Earlier that day, the American leader postponed the imposition of duties for 90 days for 75 countries due to the panic of citizens. Trump also described the market situation as "pretty grim" after his decision to impose duties.
Prior to that, on April 9, Trump announced that the United States would increase trade duties on China to 125%. He also added that more than 75 countries have summoned U.S. representatives for trade talks, which is why Trump is lowering the mutual tariff.
