WASHINGTON, July 16 (Reuters) - U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said on Wednesday that his trade policy goal was to put the $1.2 trillion U.S. trade deficit on a downward path and to stem the loss of U.S. advanced manufacturing capacity.
Greer, in remarks to a reindustrialization summit in Detroit, said that President Donald Trump's expanded tariff program was already bearing fruit in terms of spurring new industrial investments in the U.S.
