The exact figure stated in the 2025 report is 'more than 16 million' rather than exactly 16 million. The claim does not specify that these figures refer to 'mutually onshored jobs' (jobs supported by foreign affiliate investment and trade on both sides of the Atlantic). The 2025 edition of the report was published in March 2025, which would have been available at the time of the speech.
