Trump removes tariffs on Scottish whiskey after King Charles III’s visit leaves prez singing royal praises
Following King Charles III’s visit, Donald Trump said he would lift certain tariffs on Scotch whisky and remove tariffs and restrictions on whisky imports tied to Scotland’s exchange with Kentucky. Multiple outlets report Trump’s pledge to remove a 10% duty or “some” tariffs, with Bloomberg, Reuters, BBC, The Hill, PBS NewsHour, and The Guardian US noting the White House remarks and framing it as a diplomatic gesture. Some articles emphasize industry impact or a significant boost to trade; one piece notes the tariff rollback has not yet been implemented. Disagreements center on whether tariffs will be fully removed or only some restrictions lifted (per Reuters and BBC vs. Bloomberg).
