On Sunday, US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer announced that Washington intends to maintain its trade agreements with the European Union, China, and various other countries, despite a decision by the Supreme Court on tariffs made on Friday. Greer emphasized that active negotiations are ongoing with these trading partners and expressed the desire for them to recognize the mutual benefits of these agreements. He reassured that the US intends to honor these agreements and hopes that the partners will do the same.

During appearances on CBS's "Face the Nation" and ABC, Greer clarified that the upcoming meeting in April between President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping will not focus on addressing any trade disputes. Instead, Greer emphasized the importance of maintaining stability in the trade relations and ensuring that both countries adhere to their respective obligations under the agreements. He elaborated on the US commitment to keeping channels open for trade, particularly in areas such as agricultural products and aerospace goods, which are important components of the US economy.

Greer's comments are significant as they come amidst a backdrop of ongoing trade tensions that have manifested in tariff disputes and trade negotiations. By reiterating the intention to honor and maintain trade agreements, the US is signaling its willingness to engage in constructive dialogue while managing the complexities of international trade relations. The assurances may also provide reassurance to American businesses dependent on exports, as well as to foreign partners navigating the changing trade environment.
