The Office of the US Trade Representative is requesting feedback from the public regarding a trade board focused on China.

This development follows events such as the signing ceremony held in Washington, D.C., on Thursday, June 2, 2022, where Katherine Tai, the US trade representative, and Koji Tomita, Japan's ambassador to the US, gathered before the USTR seal. The occasion marked an agreement to raise the beef safeguard trigger level under the US-Japan Trade Agreement. According to the USTR, this new safeguard mechanism is designed to help US exporters satisfy Japan's increasing demand for beef, thereby lowering the likelihood that Japan will implement higher tariffs in the future.
