Trade tensions hover over G20 meeting
US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer is welcoming his G20 counterparts to Milwaukee for two jam-packed days.
The US is intensifying its push for global trade reform, sending Trade Representative Jamieson Greer to Milwaukee for a series of high-stakes meetings ahead of the G20 summit in Miami. The two-day gathering in Milwaukee sees Greer and his counterparts from around the world discussing pressing economic issues, with trade tensions simmering as the US pushes for concessions from its trading partners.
Greer has banned some Canadian imports, though he does not consider the ban urgent. The agenda includes discussions on steel overproduction and a visit to American factories, aimed at demonstrating the US's commitment to protecting domestic industries. The event is closed to the press, except for a scheduled press conference tomorrow.
