US Trade representative Michael Froman said on the 28 October 2015 that the United States would not be keen to pursue a separate free trade deal with the United Kingdom Britain if it left the European Union.

Mr Froman told Reuters that 'I think it’s absolutely clear that Britain has a greater voice at the trade table being part of the EU, being part of a larger economic entity'.
