Former Trade Negotiators Discuss This Week’s Tariff Trade Developments.
No one understands the dynamics with key U.S. trading partners better than the people who led these kinds of difficult trade negotiations for the United States. Panelists will update our viewers on the trade policy announcements, what remains undone; and what are expected next steps in these trade negotiations.
On this week’s episode of WITA’s Friday Exchange, our trade insiders debate the the administration’s Section 301 announcements on forced labor and the coming announcements on over capacity; and whether the Section 301 investigations and expected tariffs are a legitimate and durable trade policy tool or simply a pretext to recreate the IEEPA tariffs and extract leverage from trading partners. They also discussed the future of USMCA, and negotiations with Canada and Mexico to extend the agreement. And lurking behind everything: China.
