Trump's week in review: UK trade deal, illegal immigration crackdown, American pope
Meetings with the UK and Canada
The Trump administration on Thursday announced a trade agreement with the U.K., which marks the first such agreement with a foreign country since the U.S. levied tariffs against countries around the globe last month.
While retaining the 10% baseline tariff on all goods from the U.K., the U.S. agreed to lower tariffs on cars, steel and aluminum from the country, and the agreement also boosts U.S. exports such as beef and ethanol.
Trump also met last week with newly elected Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, whose meeting in the Oval Office also touched on tariffs and whether the U.S. needs Canadian products.
During his meeting with Carney, Trump raised the possibility of the U.S. annexing Canada as the 51st state, prompting Carney to reiterate Canadian sovereignty, saying, "Canada is not for sale, won’t be for sale, ever."
"Never say never," Trump joked in response.
