U.S. President Donald Trump's administration could extend its pause on reciprocal tariffs, which is set to expire next month, a White House spokesperson said Thursday, as South Korea and other countries continue talks with it to avoid or minimize the impact of the new tariffs.

U.S. President Donald Trump’s 90-day pause on implementing so-called “reciprocal” tariffs on some 180 trading partners ends on July 8. How are countries responding to the threat, and will the tariffs be re-applied from July 9?

White House officials have suggested that the deadline could be postponed for some countries, while others could receive a letter outlining new tariffs.
