Trump says tariff pause won’t be extended beyond July 9

President Donald Trump said he does not plan to extend the 90-day suspension of reciprocal trade tariffs, which ends July 9.

Speaking aboard Air Force One, Trump also said his administration will send one-page letters to US trade partners, “congratulating” them on doing business with the US.

He noted that tariffs have already generated $129 billion in revenue, with more expected.

On April 2, Trump signed an executive order imposing tariffs, with a base rate of 10% and higher rates for 57 countries. A 90-day pause for most nations began April 9 and expires July 8. A separate pause for China lasts until August 12.
