US will scrap Irish whisky tariff, Trump says

During a trophy ceremony at the Amgen Irish Open golf tournament in Doonbeg, Ireland, US President Donald Trump announced the repeal of a 10 percent tariff on Irish whisky. This tariff was part of duties imposed on European Union wine and spirit exports to the United States. Irish whisky producers have faced these tariffs for over a year, and the Irish Whiskey Association recently advocated for their elimination to protect US businesses and consumers.
