In recent days, the US government has unilaterally launched a tariff war, imposing tariffs on almost all trading partners, and continuously escalating tariffs on China, which has been widely opposed by the international community. At present, global economic growth is weak, and countries should work together to discuss achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
Breach multilateral w88 rules
Seriously impacted the cornerstone of international w88
After the end of World War II, in order to maintain global w88 liberalization and jointly oppose the abuse of w88 protectionist measures, a multilateral trading system with the World w88 Organization (WTO, including its predecessor, the General Agreement on Tariffs and w88) as its core was gradually established and improved. The non-discrimination principle, transparency principle and fair w88 principle advocated by the WTO provide a basic rule framework for the development of global free w88.
The imposition of so-called "reciprocal tariffs" violates the principle of non-discrimination. The principle of non-discrimination consists of unconditional most-favored-nation treatment and national treatment.
The imposition of so-called "reciprocal tariffs" violates the principle of transparency. The multilateral trading system advocates that members, based on their own economic conditions and competitiveness, continuously reduce tariff and non-tariff barriers through negotiations, gradually open up the market, and implement w88 liberalization.
The imposition of so-called "reciprocal tariffs" violates the principle of fair w88. The multilateral trading system opposes members' unfair w88 means such as dumping or subsidies to disrupt normal w88, and allows anti-dumping and anti-subsidy w88 remedies to ensure that international w88 is conducted on a fair basis.
Crising widespread w88 friction
Seriously undermines the stability of global industrial chain and supply chain
The so-called "reciprocal tariff" policy of the United States quickly triggered strong reactions from various countries. In addition to China's reciprocal countermeasures, the EU, Brazil, Canada and others have begun to announce formal response policies.
In addition, the so-called "reciprocal tariffs" imposed by the United States will also impact the upstream, middle and downstream of the entire industrial chain and supply chain. First, it will become more expensive and difficult for raw materials and parts upstream of the industrial chain to enter the United States. Many American companies need to be forced to increase procurement costs or find alternative suppliers, which will directly cause the price of the final product to rise or the quality of the quality; second, although the processing and assembly process in the midstream of the industrial chain basically does not produce additional products, whether the labor cost and machine depreciation can be effectively compensated will be greatly affected by the prices of upstream and downstream products.
Dark economic growth prospects
Seriously aggravates the risk of world economic recession
Free w88 is an important driving force for world economic growth and is of great significance to countries in maintaining economic growth and increasing employment. The so-called "reciprocal tariff" policy in the United States undoubtedly casts a shadow on the prospects for global economic growth.
The so-called "reciprocal tariffs" imposed by the United States stems from the White House's dissatisfaction with the "w88 imbalance" between the United States and its trading partners. At the same time, it hopes that manufacturing companies can return to the United States. However, the reasons for the imbalance between countries and the formation of the global manufacturing distribution structure are complex. It should be adjusted by optimizing its own development structure and conducting friendly consultations on the basis of respecting the laws of the market economy and the choice of corporate development paths.
