At present, the urgent matter is to sign and implement the agreement, and when and when to start the follow-up consultation. It is understood that the United States is also holding a news conference, estimated that the United States will announce the relevant information.
All circles in the United States highly appreciate the agreement reached between China and the United States on the first stage economic and trade agreement.
In this regard, all sectors of the United States have highly praised the agreement. It has successfully reversed the trend of escalating economic and trade frictions, which is conducive to China and the United States and the global economy, and has laid a good foundation for further negotiations.
The first stage economic and trade agreement between China and the United States has also been welcomed by many American trade associations.

Abolition of tariffs is the core issue, and the global chemical industry will gain a big profit.
At the conference, Liao Min said, The abolition of tariffs is China's core concern in economic and trade negotiations, and the two sides have reached agreement on this issue. The US side has promised to Abolish some tariffs that have been imposed on China and impose tariffs, and will increase the tariff exemption for China's exports to the United States, and promote the trend of tariff increase from a rising trend to a downward trend. This is a promise, yes. At the same time, China will consider it accordingly. Measures to impose tariffs on US imports are not implemented in December 15th. This is the consensus reached between the two sides on the tariff issue in the first stage agreement.
Expanding Sino US trade cooperation is in line with the requirements of China's high-quality economic development. The import of advanced technology and equipment and key parts to expand domestic demand will help Chinese enterprises to invest more effectively at a higher level while meeting the needs of domestic enterprises. Expanding service imports from the United States will also help domestic service enterprises to enhance their competitiveness and further improve the quality and level of service delivery. At the same time, we should also see that China is an important export market for the United States. Expanding Sino US trade cooperation is also of positive significance for the United States. China is the second largest export market for agricultural products in the United States. It is the second largest export destination for us soybean and the largest export destination for cotton. Through the shale oil and gas revolution, the oil and gas production in the United States has greatly improved, and it is also necessary to open up the international energy market and increase the export of energy products.
Since the US government announced that tariffs on soybeans, chemicals, automobiles and other commodities imported from China have been subject to tariffs, chemical industry across the world has been affected to varying degrees, which has done great harm to American businesses and workers. US stocks suffered a cliff breaking fall, and American clothing, chemicals, footwear, automobiles, agricultural products and other industries shrank and unemployment increased. According to the analysis of the industry, the domestic chemical industry will usher in a heavy profit. The export of products will usher in a new situation, and promote the quality products such as raw materials in the chemical industry to go out of the country and promote economic development. Not only the domestic chemical industry, but also the global chemical industry will usher in a good new situation.
On December 13th, the US Trade Representative Office (USTR) issued a statement on the first stage economic and trade agreement between the two sides. The statement said:
1, the United States will cancel the plan for the import of Chinese imports from 25% to 30% for about 250 billion US dollars (including 34 billion List1 list, 16 billion List2 list and 200 billion List3 list) and maintain a 25% tariff.
2, tariffs on imports of Chinese imports of about 120 billion US dollars (that is, the list of 300 billion List 4A which has been added in September 1st) fell from original 15% to 7.5%;
3, cancel the plan to increase the tax on China's imports of commodities, which was originally scheduled for the list of US $300 billion List 4B in December 15th.
In order to implement the Sino US consultation on economic and trade issues recently, according to the Customs Law of the People's Republic of China, the People's Republic of China foreign trade law, the People's Republic of China import and export tariff Ordinance and other basic laws and regulations, and the basic principles of international law, the State Council's tariff tariff committee decides:
For those imported from the United States, which originally planned to levy tariffs at 12 hours and 01 minutes in December 15th, 10% and 5% tariffs will not be levied.
Tariffs on cars and parts originating in the United States will continue to be suspended.
In addition to the above measures, other tariff measures for us and Canada continue to be implemented according to the regulations, and the elimination of tariff commodities in the US and Canada continues.
China hopes to work together with the US side on the basis of equality and mutual respect to properly resolve each other's core concerns and promote the steady development of Sino US economic and trade relations.
