South Africa Aims to Cut 30% US Tariff With Revised Trade Offer
South Africa is seeking to reduce a 30% tariff imposed by the US on its exports by submitting a revised trade-framework deal. The tariff was introduced by former President Donald Trump as part of his "America First" policy. South Africa's Trade and Industry Minister, Ebrahim Patel, stated that the revised deal will address the concerns raised by the US administration. The details of the proposed changes have not been disclosed, but the South African government is hopeful that the new offer will lead to a favorable outcome and a reduction in the tariff. This move is part of South Africa's efforts to maintain its trade relationship with the US, which is a crucial market for its exports. The success of these negotiations could have significant implications for the country's economic growth and its position in the global trade landscape.
