The Trump administration has launched an aggressive trade initiative to finalize 90 trade agreements within 90 days, aiming to stabilize markets and revive economic confidence after recent tariff shocks. However, experts and former trade negotiators are casting doubt on its feasibility. The plan faces major obstacles including limited staffing in key agencies, scheduling conflicts—such as Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent skipping EU meetings—and ongoing trade tensions with China. Analysts warn that meaningful trade deals typically require months or years, not days, raising concerns over the plan’s strategic depth and implementation capacity. (PC: Reuters)
