等了這麼久,終於開獎了。
首先,原本EO 14257的除外商品仍舊適用
After considering the information and recommendations that I have recently received, among other things, I have determined that it is necessary and appropriate to deal with the national emergency declared in Executive Order 14257 by imposing additional ad valorem duties on goods of certain trading partners at the rates set forth in Annex I to this order, subject to all applicable exceptions set forth in Executive Order 14257, as amended, in lieu of the additional ad valorem duties previously imposed on goods of such trading partners in Executive Order 14257, as amended.
另外,白宮提到:
Certain foreign trading partners identified in Annex I to this order have agreed to, or are on the verge of concluding, meaningful trade and security agreements with the United States. Goods of those trading partners will remain subject to the additional ad valorem duties provided in Annex I to this order until such time as those agreements are concluded, and I issue subsequent orders memorializing the terms of those agreements.
言下之意,白宮要留個空間讓全世界再繼續談判。
或許,台灣應該是有什麼東西是白宮想要,但是還沒有拿到的,所以高於明顯的幾個可類比國家。
現在好奇的是,總統府給了什麼讓我們到20%、沒有給什麼而是白宮可能想要的。
