Implementing the General Terms of the United States of America-United Kingdom Economic Prosperity Deal

Executive Order June 23, 2025 Document 2025-11473

Summary

On June 16, 2025, President Donald Trump signed an executive order implementing the United States-United Kingdom Economic Prosperity Deal, aimed at enhancing trade relations between the two nations. This deal grants American companies greater access to British markets, notably increasing exports of U.S. agricultural products and reducing non-tariff barriers. The agreement also outlines provisions for automotive imports, aerospace trade, and future negotiations on pharmaceuticals, which could bolster U.S. economic interests and national security. Politically, this move may strengthen U.S.-UK relations, but it could face scrutiny over its compliance with international trade laws and its impact on domestic industries.
