US President Donald Trump and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer agreed a trade deal Thursday that offers some tariff relief for key industries, including UK steel and cars, but the full details remain lacking.
The deal will also see some US goods “fast track” through UK customs processing, and US beef to be eligible for export to the UK for the first time.
The US president also teased a possible agreement on movie tariffs, which UK filmmakers have warned would devastate the industry.
The deal was presented as a “victory lap” for both the UK and US, The New York Times wrote, with Starmer particularly keen to portray the economic agreement as part of a broader security partnership.
