Trump Nominates Greer for USTR, Hassett for NEC Amid Tariff Plans
Nov 27, 2024, 01:43 AM
President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Jamieson Greer, a former chief of staff to USTR Robert Lighthizer, as the new United States Trade Representative (USTR). This announcement comes amid Trump's plans to impose tariffs on goods from China, Mexico, and Canada. Greer, who played a key role in Trump's first-term trade negotiations, is seen as a protégé of Lighthizer and is expected to oversee the implementation of Trump's tariff policies. His nomination is part of Trump's strategy to address the country's trade deficit, defend American manufacturing, agriculture, and services, and open up export markets. Additionally, Trump has named Kevin Hassett to direct the National Economic Council, filling another key position on his economic team.
