U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer will meet his British counterpart in London on Thursday as the two work toward reaching a trade deal yet this year.
Lighthizer’s meeting with International Trade Secretary Liz Truss comes on the same day London releases its position on separate talks with the EU toward a post-Brexit trade arrangement. This comes as U.S. and UK meat industry groups have signed a memorandum of understanding to further their contacts as the two parties work on a trade deal.
Meanwhile, reports indicate European Union (EU) Trade Commissioner Phil Hogan will be in Washington next month just a few days before March 18, his target date for striking a separate trade agreement with the Trump administration.
Welcome
