Do you know? Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974When the US imposes Section 301 tariffs, affected countries can and often do retaliate with their own tariffs on US exports, creating broader trade conflicts. For example, China responded to the 2018–2019 Section 301 actions with retaliatory tariffs that hit US agricultural exports particularly hard,…

Do you know? Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974The large wave of tariffs on Chinese imports since 2018—covering about USD370 billion worth of goods across multiple product “lists”—was justified under Section 301 after USTR found China’s practices on tech transfer and intellectual property to be unreasonable and discriminatory. Many of those tariffs (often…
