President Donald Trump and Malaysia’s Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim signed a trade agreement and critical minerals pact Sunday, as the US leader looked to boost trade across Southeast Asia and respond to China’s tightening of access to rare earths.
Malaysia “is going to be modifying its tariffs and non-tariff barriers, and we intend to have a lot more trade,” US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said at the signing in the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur, adding that he expected agriculture, technology and services sectors to benefit from the agreement.
Greer said that the critical minerals deal made sure that trade and investment in the rare earths would make trade “as free as possible and resilient as possible.”
