Trump announces new trade deal with Indonesia and cuts tariff

US President Donald Trump announced a trade deal with Indonesia on Tuesday, saying it agreed to pay a 19 per cent tariff on its exports and pledged to buy American goods. In a post on his Truth Social platform, Mr Trump said Indonesia would supply the US with critical minerals and planned to purchase Boeing aircraft and farming products. 'This Deal is a huge win for our automakers, tech companies, workers, farmers, ranchers and manufacturers,' Mr Trump wrote. The deal comes as Indonesia was facing a 32 per cent tariff on exports to the US, starting from August 1. US officials said the agreement ensured some tariffs remained on Indonesia, which has a population of about 280 million. 'The deal is significant,' one official told journalists on a call. 'It opens new markets for us, exports, reaffirms US digital leadership and it eliminates non-tariff barriers on US exports.' The official added that Indonesia would drop its tariffs 'to zero on over 99 per cent of its trade' with the US and would also eliminate all non-tariff barriers. The deal solidifies Mr Trump's strategy of using the threat of high tariff rates to extract concessions from trade partners under his America First approach. It may serve as a blueprint for agreements with other nations. He also announced a new 19 per cent tariff rate for goods from the Philippines, the country's President Ferdinand Marcos Jr visited the White House. 'It was a beautiful visit and we concluded our trade deal, whereby the Philippines is going open market with the United States, and zero tariffs. The Philippines will pay a 19 per cent tariff,' Mr Trump said. He called Mr Marcos a 'very good and tough negotiator". In April, Mr Trump announced a blanket 10 per cent tariff on almost all trading partners, while imposing higher levies on other countries with trade deficits. Mr Trump, who took office in January, had framed his so-called reciprocal tariff policy as a way to reduce deficits the US has with its trading partners. The US official said the agreement with Indonesia was worth at least $50 billion to the country in new market access, as well as purchases by Indonesian companies, including liquefied natural gas and farm commodities. The US had a goods trade deficit of $17.9 billion with the country last year, according to the Office of the US Trade Representative. That was a 5.4 per cent increase from 2023. While US exports to Indonesia increased by 3.7 per cent to $10.2 billion last year, imports rose by 4.8 per cent. Mr Trump's efforts to reformat US trade has also come with great uncertainty and course reversals. The President said he would quickly reach trade deals with nations, but only Indonesia, the UK and Vietnam have announced agreements. Mr Trump has secured a 'trade truce' with China, which has a separate deadline. Earlier this month, trade letters went out to more than a dozen countries, with threats of tariff rates ranging from 20 to 50 per cent.

Trump agrees to small reduction in Philippine tariffs after trade talks

US President Donald Trump agreed Tuesday to reduce threatened tariffs on the Philippines, but only by one percentage point, after what he termed a successful meeting with his counterpart Ferdinand Marcos. Welcoming Marcos to the White House, Trump called him a "very tough negotiator" and said: "We're very close to finishing a trade deal — a big trade deal, actually." In a social media post shortly afterward, Trump said that while the Philippines would open up completely to US goods, he would still impose a 19 per cent tariff on products from the Southeast Asian country, a major exporter of high-tech items and apparel. "It was a beautiful visit, and we concluded our Trade Deal, whereby The Philippines is going OPEN MARKET with the United States, and ZERO Tariffs," Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform. The Philippines was among two dozen economies confronted by Trump with letters this month warning of 20 per cent tariffs on all goods coming into the United States as of August 1. The 19 per cent rate is still above the 17 per cent threatened by Trump in April, when he threatened sweeping global tariffs. The trade rift comes despite increasingly close defence relations between the United States and the Philippines, a former US colony and treaty-bound ally that has seen high tensions with China. The United States last year, under Trump's predecessor Joe Biden, deployed ground-launched missiles in the Philippines. Washington has also eyed ammunition manufacturing in the Philippines, despite the closure in 1992 of the US naval base at Subic Bay due to heavy public pressure. "All of what we consider part of the modernization of the Philippine military is really a response to the circumstances that surround the situation in the South China Sea," Marcos said next to Trump. Trump devoted much of the appearance to attacks on his Democratic predecessors Biden and Barack Obama. "We are essentially concerned with the defense of our territory and the exercise of our sovereign rights," said Marcos. "Our strongest, closest, most reliable ally has always been the United States."
