WASHINGTON, June 11 (Yonhap) -- U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) Jamieson Greer has sent a letter to the Washington Post editorial board to rebut its recent editorial criticizing proposed tariffs on South Korea and other economies over forced labor concerns, saying the piece was driven by its "antipathy" toward President Donald Trump.
