Jamieson Greer , President Donald Trump 's nominee for U.S. trade representative, says a universal tariff needs further study.

Greer says he will put countries on notice they must lower import barriers to maintain access to the market.

He said he wants to push for smaller trade deficits and equal treatment from trade partners.

The USTR nominee was chief of staff to former USTR Robert Lighthizer during Obama 's first term.

Greer said he would push for a pragmatic U.S. trade policy.

He said he will push to rebuild U.K. manufacturing and shoring up supply chains.

“If the United States does not have a robust manufacturing base and innovation economy, it will have little hard power to deter conflict and protect Americans ,” he said.
