President Donald Trump shook up the global economic order again on Tuesday with not one, but two major trade announcements—first with Indonesia and then, just hours later, a record-shattering deal with Japan.

While addressing congressional Republicans at the White House, Trump revealed that he had signed what he called “the largest trade deal in history” with Japan. He said the agreement would not only bring in massive investment but also unlock lucrative new market access for U.S. exports.

“They had their top people here, and we worked on it long and hard. And it’s a great deal for everybody,” Trump said, adding that the U.S. is set to receive 90% of the profits from Japan’s $550 billion investment. “There has never been anything like it.”

According to Trump, Japan will also open its markets to American cars, trucks, rice, and other agricultural products—while agreeing to a 15% reciprocal tariff on imports from the U.S. A key feature of the deal also includes a joint LNG venture in Alaska, further boosting domestic energy development.

Earlier in the day, the White House revealed the framework for another sweeping deal—this time with Indonesia. The bilateral agreement, dubbed a “Framework for Reciprocal Trade,” builds upon the long-standing U.S.-Indonesia economic partnership and takes it to new heights.

Under the proposed terms, Indonesia will eliminate nearly all tariffs on U.S. industrial and agricultural goods. In return, the U.S. will reduce reciprocal tariffs to 19%, with further reductions possible for select commodities not produced domestically. The deal also includes provisions to recognize U.S. food safety standards, remove burdensome import licensing regimes, and eliminate barriers to U.S. meat, dairy, and produce exports.

One particularly strategic element: Indonesia’s agreement to remove restrictions on exports of critical minerals to the U.S.—a key move amid intensifying global competition for raw materials.

Trump emphasized that these trade breakthroughs prove the effectiveness of his hardline approach, including the strategic use of tariffs. “The tariffs kicked in better than anybody thought they could,” he said.

Taken together, the twin announcements represent a major win for U.S. farmers, manufacturers, and energy producers, and a powerful signal to the world that Trump’s America First economic policy is far from over.

With reciprocal deals now emerging from Asia to Europe, Trump is not just restoring fair trade—he’s rewriting the rulebook entirely.
