    US Trade Rep Greer Reshapes Global Trade Policy Amid Tariff Reviews and Regional Negotiations

    08/03/2026 | 2 mins.
    United States Trade Representative Jamieson Greer has been active in recent high-level trade talks amid global tensions. According to the Seoul Economic Daily, Deputy Trade Minister Yeo Han-koo met with Greer in Washington, where both sides agreed to convene the Korea-United States Free Trade Agreement Joint Committee soon to stabilize trade amid uncertainties. This follows South Korean Trade Minister Kim Jung-kwan's discussions with US officials, securing indications that Korea will avoid further tariff hikes if it passes investment legislation next week.

    Fibre2Fashion reports that Greer and Mexican Secretary of Economy Marcelo Ebrard announced the launch of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement review process, with the first bilateral talks set for the week of March 16. The discussions aim to reduce reliance on non-regional imports, strengthen rules of origin, and bolster North American supply chains ahead of a full review later this year.

    The India Tribune states that Greer is leading Section 301 investigations into unfair trade practices, targeting most major partners, as the US shifts from struck-down emergency tariffs to new duties under Section 122, starting at 10 percent and rising to 15 percent. US Customs and Border Protection is developing a streamlined refund system for the roughly 166 billion dollars collected, potentially ready in 45 days with minimal importer submissions.

    CBS News notes Greer's attendance at President Trump's Shield of the Americas summit in Florida, alongside Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and others. The event focused on countering Latin American cartels, with Trump proclaiming a new coalition and urging military action, while emphasizing US dominance against Chinese influence in the hemisphere.

    These moves highlight Greer's role in reshaping US trade policy under pressure from court rulings, regional alliances, and geopolitical strains.

    Jamieson Greer, the United States Trade Representative, has been active in key trade talks over the past few days. South Koreas Trade Minister Kim Jung-kwan met with Greer in Washington, according to Sedaily reports, and discussed stabilizing trade amid tariff threats. Deputy Trade Minister Yeo Han-koo, who also met Greer, said both sides agreed to convene the Korea-United States Free Trade Agreement Joint Committee soon to address uncertainties. Kim noted that passing a special investment act in Koreas National Assembly next week could prevent further United States tariff hikes from 15 percent to 25 percent.

    Greer and Mexicos Secretary of Economy Marcelo Ebrard announced the launch of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement review process, Fibre2Fashion reports. Negotiators plan their first meeting the week of March 16 to discuss reducing reliance on outside imports, strengthening rules of origin, and securing North American supply chains. The full review is set for later this year.

    On tariff refunds, Greer is overseeing investigations under Section 301 of the 1974 Trade Act into unfair practices by most major trading partners, India Tribune states. This follows a Supreme Court ruling against emergency tariffs, with United States Customs and Border Protection developing a streamlined refund system ready in 45 days for the 166 billion dollars collected.

    Greer attended President Trumps Shield of the Americas summit in Florida, CBS News reports. Joined by Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and others, he supported Trumps push for a counter-cartel coalition against Mexican cartels fueling hemispheric violence. Trump signed a proclamation urging military action, amid efforts to counter Chinese influence in the region.

    These moves highlight Greers role in reshaping United States trade amid global tensions.

    Jamieson Greer, the United States Trade Representative, has been active in recent trade negotiations. On March 3, 2026, the Office of the United States Trade Representative announced Greer's leadership in advancing talks with the European Union on digital trade rules. According to a statement from the USTR website, Greer emphasized reducing barriers to cross border data flows during a virtual meeting with EU counterparts.

    In a major decision, Greer on March 2 approved tariff exclusions for certain solar panel imports, as detailed in the Federal Register. This move, aimed at easing domestic energy costs, drew praise from renewable energy groups but criticism from some manufacturers over competition.

    The Wall Street Journal highlighted Greer's testimony before the Senate Finance Committee on March 1, where he defended the administrations approach to trade deficits with Mexico. Greer outlined plans for stricter enforcement of labor standards under the United States Mexico Canada Agreement.

    Reuters noted that Greer also addressed steel and aluminum quotas in a press briefing on March 4, signaling potential adjustments to protect United States producers amid global oversupply.

On March 3, 2026, Greer met with European Union officials in Washington to discuss strengthening transatlantic trade ties amid global supply chain issues, according to a Reuters report. The talks focused on reducing tariffs on clean energy technologies and addressing steel overcapacity from China.

    Greer emphasized the need for fair competition, stating that the United States seeks reciprocal market access without subsidies distorting trade. Bloomberg News covered the meeting, noting Greer's push for a new framework to boost semiconductor exports to Europe.

    In another development, on March 4, the USTR office under Greer announced preliminary findings in a Section 301 investigation into China's digital trade practices. The report, detailed on the official USTR website, accuses Beijing of data localization rules that disadvantage American tech firms. Greer is expected to recommend countermeasures soon.

    Domestically, Greer testified before the Senate Finance Committee on March 2 about enforcing the United States Mexico Canada Agreement. Politico reports he highlighted progress in labor reforms in Mexico but warned of ongoing automotive sector disputes.

    Greer also addressed electric vehicle battery supply chains during a virtual panel hosted by the Council on Foreign Relations on March 1. He advocated for diversifying sources away from China to secure United States manufacturing jobs.

    Trump Administration Announces 2026 Trade Policy Agenda with Tariff Enforcement and USMCA Renegotiation Plans

    03/03/2026 | 2 mins.
    United States Trade Representative Jamieson Greer has been active in recent days, delivering key updates on trade policy and enforcement. On March 3, according to AgriAmerica news, Greer announced President Trump's 2026 Trade Policy Agenda and the 2025 Annual Report to Congress. This agenda outlines plans to reduce foreign tariffs and non-tariff barriers, enforce reciprocal trade deals, and launch new investigations into unfair practices, as reported by Grainews.

    Greer provided a clear timeline during a White House meeting between Trump and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. Investing dot com reports that the United States will complete multiple trade probes within five months under Section 301 of the 1974 Trade Act. These investigations target unfair trading practices to protect United States economic security and enable new tariffs, replacing those invalidated by a Supreme Court ruling on February 20.

    The agenda also addresses the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement, known as CUSMA, seeking improvements in rules of origin and handling investment from non-market economies. It aims to balance trade with China, finalize deals with countries like the European Union, India, Japan, and others, and bring supply chains for critical minerals, semiconductors, and pharmaceuticals back to the United States. Grainews details these priorities, including evaluations for new Section 301 probes on global overcapacity, seafood abuses, and digital services taxes.

    Industry groups, led by the National Foreign Trade Council, urged Greer in a recent letter to extend the trilateral USMCA with stakeholder input to avoid supply chain disruptions and maintain North American competitiveness.

    Additionally, the United States Trade Representative office released the 2025 Review of Notorious Markets for Counterfeiting and Piracy. Greer highlighted risks from counterfeit merchandise and illicit sports streaming ahead of the FIFA World Cup, calling for international cooperation on intellectual property protections. The list identifies 37 online and 32 physical markets involved in these issues.

    These moves signal a focused push for fair trade and enforcement amid global uncertainties.
