On June 14th, the American Manufacturing Alliance released a report on China's industrial capacity.
The organization calls for the United States to implement stricter trade barriers against Chinese imports.
It stated that it is necessary to restore Article 421 to address the new threat of a surge in imports.
Tire World Network learned that the "421 clause" is an anti import surge clause in US trade law.
The most representative use case of this clause is the 2009 "China Tire Special Protection Case".
Former US President Obama used this provision to significantly increase tariffs on Chinese tires.
In addition, the American Manufacturing Alliance also highlighted Vietnam and Mexico in its report.
The organization calls on the US government to accelerate the tariff collection process for China, Vietnam, and Mexico
The wider and longer the scope and duration of taxation, the more likely it is to avoid permanent damage to the United States.
In fact, the American Manufacturing Alliance has long spoken out against Mexican imports.
The reason is that the three major electric vehicle manufacturers in China are negotiating to build factories in Mexico.
Regarding this, the spokesperson of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs has repeatedly stated that China Mexico cooperation is a matter between two sovereign countries.
Relevant countries should stop economic coercion and not securitize normal trade exchanges.
