The US inflation has recently reached a 30-year high. US President Biden recently emphasized that curbing inflation is the "most priority target", making all parties call for lifting retaliatory tariffs on mainland China even more loudly. According to analysis by Taiwanese businessmen in coastal cities, it is absolutely a good thing for Taiwanese businessmen in mainland China. After all, Taiwanese businessmen who can control the pricing power of goods are among the few. When the US export tax rate is lowered, it will naturally reduce the pressure of absorbing costs before.
However, the Taiwanese businessman believes that there are some things that need to be paid attention to. He admitted that Sino-US relations can ease relations, and there may be exchange conditions. Biden even directly shouted that he did not support "Taiwan independence", and Taiwan may have become one of the bargaining chips for the United States.
. When the United States is considering lifting retaliatory tariffs, U.S. Trade Representative Katherine Tai said earlier that The Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) is evaluating the tariffs imposed on mainland goods under the "301 clause ". In fact, Dai Qi has restarted the procedures and approved that some imported products from the mainland can be excluded from punitive tariffs. At the same time, the Office of the United States Trade Representative solicited public opinions on the exclusion of some imported products from the mainland last month.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Yellen (Janet Yellen) pointed out that the United States expects the mainland to fulfill its commitments in signing the first phase of the trade agreement during his tenure, but may consider ultimately reducing some tariffs in a reciprocal way.
But the United States still has other voices on lifting retaliatory tariffs. According to the analysis of "CNN", the possibility of cancellation is currently not high. The first is that the United States is still tough and has introduced subsidy measures to domestic companies. The second is that China's progress in purchasing US goods is still far behind in the promise of the "first phase trade agreement" between the two sides.
