The trade deficit of the United States rose to 56.8 billion dollars in November, with an exacerbation of the imbalance with the European Union.

In November, the United States' trade deficit reached $56.8 billion, nearly doubling from the previous month, according to data from the Census Bureau. This increase of 94.6% was particularly influenced by the deterioration of trade relations with the European Union, where the goods deficit rose by $8.2 billion. Although the deficit with China decreased by about $1 billion to $13.9 billion, the cumulative deficit up to November reached $839.5 billion, 4% more than in the same period of the previous year. This development contradicts the Trump administration's efforts to reduce trade imbalances by imposing tariffs, and a recent agreement with the European Union established a 15% tariff on most European goods in an attempt to stabilize trade relations.
