Core Viewpoint - China openly criticized the United States' unilateral actions at the World Trade Organization (WTO), highlighting the negative impact of the U.S. "reciprocal tariff" policy on global service trade [3][9][13]. Group 1: U.S. Tariff Policies - On October 1, 2025, the U.S. imposed a 100% tariff on imported patented drugs unless companies establish manufacturing in the U.S., significantly impacting the global pharmaceutical supply chain, particularly affecting India [4][9]. - Additional tariffs include a 50% increase on kitchen cabinets and bathroom fixtures, a 30% increase on imported furniture, and a 25% tariff on heavy trucks, continuing the "America First" strategy [4][9]. - The U.S. Customs data indicated that tariff revenue reached $17.4 billion in May 2025, nearly double from the previous year, reshaping global trade dynamics [7]. Group 2: Impact on Global Trade - The WTO meeting on October 3, 2025, saw China presenting a document outlining three main harms of the U.S. tariff policy: undermining multilateral trade rules, negatively affecting service trade, and exacerbating challenges for developing countries [9][11]. - The global service trade growth is projected to decline by 0.3 percentage points due to the tariff war, affecting multinational companies' outsourcing strategies [11]. - Countries like India and Brazil reported significant economic impacts, with India's pharmaceutical exports dropping by 12% and Brazil's economic growth potentially decreasing by 0.5 percentage points if U.S. tariffs persist [15]. Group 3: Multilateral Response - The meeting prompted a united response from multiple countries condemning U.S. protectionism, contrasting sharply with the U.S.'s long-standing unilateralism [15][17]. - China's call for maintaining WTO rules and establishing a global trade order based on rules rather than power received increasing support from other nations [13][25]. - The concept of "shared responsibility" proposed by China is gaining recognition, emphasizing the need for an inclusive rule system for the healthy development of service trade [25]. Group 4: Long-term Implications - The ongoing trade situation represents a fundamental clash between multilateralism and unilateralism, with China advocating for reforms within the WTO framework [23][25]. - The restructuring of global supply chains is evident, with increased costs in intermediate goods trade by 12% in the first half of 2025, prompting companies to reassess their production capacities [19]. - The U.S. faces domestic repercussions from its tariff policies, with household expenses rising by $1,200 annually due to tariffs, ultimately affecting consumer prices [21].
