Argentina and US amend trade agreement
Argentine Foreign Minister Pablo Quirno and US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer signed a protocol of amendments to a trade agreement originally signed in February. The revisions removed references to reciprocal tariffs that had been struck down by a US Supreme Court decision, a change intended to secure legislative approval in Argentina. President Javier Milei’s government previously lacked the necessary votes to ratify the initial pact, leading to the renegotiation. The updated agreement reaffirms most-favored-nation tariff treatment for Argentine products and serves as part of a broader trade and investment agenda between the Trump and Milei administrations.
