What approach does the United States expect to take toward liberalization of non-agricultural products? Will it mirror the approach for agricultural products?
The United States is intent on pursuing significant liberalization on non-agricultural products. We anticipate making, in the proper forum, negotiating proposals that reflect our interest in non-agricultural liberalization. However, these proposals will not necessarily reflect the same tariff reduction methodology put forth in our agriculture proposal. Q: How does this proposal help developing countries? A: The United States has heard the calls of developing countries in these negotiations. We understand that countries will not reduce tariffs unless developed countries also reduce tariffs and trade-distorting support. That is why it is so important to negotiate a comprehensive package that addresses distortion in all three areas of market access, domestic support, and export subsidies. Developing countries will benefit from tariff reductions, particularly the focus on reducing high tariffs, because it will open new markets for their products in both developed and developing country mar
