A day after President Joe Biden indicated that he might consider lifting some of the tariffs that former President Donald Trump imposed on imports from China, the White House's top trade adviser clarified that any adjustments to tariffs would have to be "strategic."
"With respect to the tariffs, our approach as with everything in this relationship, is to be strategic," U.S. Trade Representative Katherine Tai told Bloomberg on Tuesday in an interview with Shery Ahn and Haidi Lun. "All options are on the table in terms of how we address our short-term economic needs, but our eye must be on the ball with respect to the medium and long term needs for the United States to realign this economic and trade relationship."
