Office of the U.S. Trade Representative
Washington, DC – The Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) today issued the 2020 National Trade Estimate (NTE), an annual report detailing foreign trade barriers faced by U.S. exporters of goods and services and USTR’s efforts to reduce those barriers.
“Under President Trump’s leadership, the Administration is working constantly to help strengthen our economy by reducing and eliminating foreign barriers to American trade,” said Ambassador Robert Lighthizer. “As this report shows, we continue to win significant trade victories for our workers, farmers, ranchers and businesses, both large and small.”
