Jamieson Greer, the United States Trade Representative, has been active in key discussions this week. On December 12, Turkeys Trade Minister Omer Bolat met with Greer in Washington, calling the talks highly productive. According to Hurriyet Daily News, they focused on boosting bilateral trade to 100 billion dollars, with technical teams set to continue work on regulations, investments, and exports in digital services, energy, aviation, and defense. Bolat noted over 2000 American companies operate in Turkey with 15.5 billion dollars in investments, and trade hit 34 billion dollars last year, projected at 38 billion this year.
Earlier this week, during a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing on Tuesday, Senator Chris Van Hollen sparred with Greer over tariffs, as reported in a YouTube video summary from the event. The exchange highlighted ongoing debates on trade policy.
Greer also addressed the United States Mexico Canada Agreement review in a Politico interview this month, amid inflation concerns tempering tariff threats. He emphasized significant changes ahead on issues like autos, agriculture, dairy, digital taxes, and metals, while noting sensitivities to consumer prices.
On December 9, NBC News reported Greer shifted the timeline for Chinese soybean purchases under a trade deal, citing a discrepancy in commitments.
These moves show Greers focus on enforcing deals, resolving disputes, and expanding partnerships.
