LONDON (Reuters) – Britain is seeking far-reaching reductions in tariffs in a trade deal with the United States, trade minister Liz Truss said on Thursday, setting out the broad aims of her post-Brexit push to secure new free trade agreements.
“The FTA (Free Trade Agreement) will secure comprehensive, far-reaching and mutually beneficial tariff reductions – taking into account sensitive UK products – which will increase access to the U.S. market for UK businesses, and lower prices and increase choice for UK consumers,” Truss said in a written statement to parliament.
