Description

The Trump administration is intensifying pressure on foreign governments over digital rules deemed unfair to American tech companies. Recent actions include halting talks with the UK, canceling a meeting with South Korea, and warning about EU digital regulations. The aim is to safeguard U.S. innovation and maintain market access. Lawmakers support these efforts, with 41 House members urging action against South Korean policies targeting U.S. services and innovators. Previous successes include Canada dropping a proposed digital services tax and preliminary deals with the EU and South Korea. U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer aims to initiate formal investigations to push negotiations, avoiding major trade wars.
