The United States Ambassador to Ghana, Virginia Palmer, has called for further dialogue with the government of Ghana following high-level talks at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs over the recent imposition of a 10 percent tariff on imports from Ghana and several other countries.
The new tariff policy, set to take effect this week, has sparked concern within Ghana's private sector, with industry experts warning of its potential to negatively impact exports and government revenue.
This development comes on the back of an earlier U.S.
decision to scale back aspects of its USAID support to Ghana - a move President John Dramani Mahama has described as a threat to critical funding inflows.
