List of Countries Considering Lifting Tariffs on the US

Canada​

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney was adamant on Wednesday that he and other world leaders would respond in kind to U.S. tariffs. The relationship between Canada and the U.S. has become more volatile since Trump took office in January.​

​

"We are going to fight these tariffs with countermeasures. We are going to protect our workers and we are going to build the strongest economy in the G7," Carney said in a video posted on X.​

​

oh my!

On Monday, Canadian officials told the Globe & Mail that they will not impose retaliatory tariffs on most U.S. food and other essentials to avoid job loss in key sectors of the economy.​

So much for that.

Israel​

On Tuesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other national leaders announced they would be lifting tariffs on U.S. products in order to maintain the countries' long and reliable alliance.​

​

India​

Reuters reported last week that India was open to cutting tariffs on U.S. imports worth $23 billion to mitigate the impact on its exports

Vietnam​

Vietnam last week promised it would cut its tariffs on several U.S. products including LNG and cars, according to Reuters, and also moved to approve Starlink services.​

​

Mexico​

On Wednesday, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said that Mexico won't go tit-for-tat on tariffs but also has not ruled out reciprocal tariffs

BREAKING: Canada Offers to Remove All Tariffs if U.S. Does the Same​

In a significant development for North American trade relations, Canada has announced that it is prepared to eliminate all tariffs on U.S. goods—provided that the United States reciprocates. This move, which could lead to one of the most comprehensive tariff-free agreements between the two nations, comes at a time when trade tensions have fluctuated due to economic and political factors.

hmmm...

I think that it is interesting that in just two days these nations came to the US to negotiate an agreement.

It seems certain people don't know what the word reciprocal means, as in reciprocal tariffs.

Some here think Trump has supernatural powers in their expectations of him. We are only three months into his presidency.

Last I checked, Monday comes before Wednesday. Just because an article places one statement after another does not mean that those statements are in chronological order.

Israel​

On Tuesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other national leaders announced they would be lifting tariffs on U.S. products in order to maintain the countries' long and reliable alliance.​

That was Tuesday - before the tariffs. We'll see if it holds.

India​

Reuters reported last week that India was open to cutting tariffs on U.S. imports worth $23 billion to mitigate the impact on its exports

That was last week. Much has changed.

Vietnam​

Vietnam last week promised it would cut its tariffs on several U.S. products including LNG and cars, according to Reuters, and also moved to approve Starlink services.​

Again, last week.

Mexico​

On Wednesday, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said that Mexico won't go tit-for-tat on tariffs but also has not ruled out reciprocal tariffs

Nothing in that about dropping tariffs. "We won't go tit-for-tat" just means they don't plan to match US tariffs exactly.
