U.S. Trade Representative: No country has indicated plans to withdraw from trade agreements reached with the United States
U.S. Trade Representative Katherine Tai stated that after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned most of former President Trump's tariff measures, no country has indicated plans to withdraw from trade agreements with the United States.
In an interview with CBS, Tai mentioned that she has communicated with EU trade representatives and will engage in dialogue with officials from other countries. So far, no one has indicated a desire to terminate agreements, and all parties hope to observe the developments. She reiterated that the U.S. will adhere to the agreements reached and expects trade partners to fulfill their commitments as well.
In an interview with ABC, she stated that the Trump administration will use other legal tools to reshape trade policy, including the unfair trade practices regulations under Section 301 and the regulations under Section 232. The Office of the U.S. Trade Representative has initiated Section 301 investigations against Brazil and China and plans to launch new investigations into areas such as industrial overcapacity affecting multiple Asian countries and unfair trade practices related to high subsidies for rice in certain countries.
It is currently unclear whether the existing tariff agreements will be excluded from the new tariff investigations. Tai previously indicated that the investigations may also examine countries' policies on taxing digital services, which is a sensitive issue in Europe
