If confirmed by the US Senate, Greer will be charged with rolling out Trump’s tariff policy and negotiating trade deals.
Donald Trump on Tuesday named Jamieson Greer his trade envoy, a key figure in rolling out the US president-elect’s economic agenda – in which tariffs are set to play a significant role.
“Jamieson played a key role during my First Term in imposing Tariffs on China and others to combat unfair Trade practices,” said Trump of Greer, who served as chief of staff to US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer during Trump’s first administration.
