WASHINGTON – Today, Ambassador Greer issued a statement following President Trump’s announcement regarding preferential duty access for whiskey produced in the United Kingdom.
"Last year, the United States and the United Kingdom jointly announced the General Terms for an Economic Prosperity Deal, where the U.S. secured increased access into the U.K. for American beef and ethanol. More recently, we announced a historic pharmaceutical deal that will drive investment and innovation in both countries," said Ambassador Greer. "As part of the EPD, the U.S. and UK have decided that in continuing its implementation, the United States will allow preferential duty access for whiskey produced in the United Kingdom, along with preferential treatment for other American and British goods."
