The White House economic adviser Brian Deese spoke in recent trade.
He said that he is not surprised by the negative reaction of financial markets to Britain's fiscal plans, including tax cuts, and underscored the need to maintain "fiscal prudence, fiscal discipline."
Deese was speaking at an event hosted by the Economic Club of Washington.
He added that Britain's plans during a cycle of monetary tightening had put the monetary authorities in a position of potentially having to tighten even further.
