Rehda: 77pc of unsold Bumiputera units priced between RM300,000 and RM500,000, high number signals supply-demand mismatch in Malaysian property marketSenior trade adviser Peter Navarro attends an interview with CNN, at the White House, in Washington April 10, 2025. — Reuters picWASHINGTON, April 12 — President Donald Trump ’s administration wants to strike 90 trade deals in 90 days, but the challenges to quickly resolving the president’s trade war are already apparent.
Bessent’s absence on Monday highlights doubts among trade experts about how effectively the administration can manage so many simultaneous negotiations and the overall prospects for reaching 90 deals in 90 days. Trump started the 90-day countdown clock this week when he paused implementing his higher tariffs for many countries after financial markets went into a tailspin over fears of recession and inflation, among other factors. He said the 90-day pause would allow countries to reach bilateral deals with the US
But Greer, the USTR, said: “We can get to a point where the president can close these deals. He can negotiate, and if there’s a deal that’s good he can consider taking it, and if not, then he’ll have the tariff.” Greer told Fox News that his 200-person staff was “working around the clock” as proposals were traded back and forth with foreign counterparts.
