President Donald Trump said he is not considering delaying his July 9 deadline for higher tariffs to resume and renewed his threat to cut off talks and impose duty rates on several nations, including Japan.

As the July 9 tariff deadline looms and without a trade deal with the U.S., Japanese carmakers are facing the tough choice of hiking prices on exported vehicles or absorbing the 25% increased cost to sell a car across the Pacific.

President Donald Trump said on Tuesday he was not thinking of extending the July 9 deadline for countries to negotiate trade deals with the U.S., and continued to express doubt that an agreement could be reached with Japan.
