WASHINGTON: Days after President Donald Trump unveiled a trade deal with India, the White House said negotiations will continue on unresolved tariff and non-tariff barriers, even as a newly released fact sheet detailed key features of the agreement and its implementation roadmap.
The fact sheet follows last Friday’s joint statement issued after a call between Trump and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, during which the two leaders agreed on a framework for an Interim Agreement on reciprocal trade and reaffirmed their commitment to a broader US–India Bilateral Trade Agreement.
According to the White House, the two countries will continue negotiations to address remaining tariff barriers, additional non-tariff barriers, technical barriers to trade, customs and trade facilitation, and good regulatory practices.
