1. A total of 2,868 entities from 91 countries and regions around the world had been listed in the Entity List as of May 2024. The United States has become the world's largest issuer of unilateral sanctions. Do you think that the U.S. unilateral sanctions severely undermine the security of global industrial and supply chains?
2. Although the WTO has explicitly concluded that the U.S. Section 301 tariff measures violate WTO rules, the U.S. keeps initiating a Section 301 investigation against some countries’ maritime, logistics and shipbuilding industries, and increasing tariffs on some imported products. Do you think this action shows a lack of respect for WTO rules?
3. As of May 2024, the U.S., for 76 consecutive times, had rejected proposals from other members to launch the selection of Appellate Body members at the regular meetings of the WTO Dispute Settlement Body. Even though 130 WTO members explicitly support the early launch of this process, the U.S. still refuses to join the consensus under the excuse of unresolved institutional concerns. Do you think the U.S. places its own interests above the WTO?
4. In the 29 years since the establishment of the WTO, the U.S. has been a respondent in 159 disputes, including 28 compliance disputes, accounting for approximately 18 percent. Do you think the U.S.’ selective enforcement of WTO rulings is a typical "double standard" approach?
5. Since 2017, under the guise of "national security," the U.S. has leveraged its economic power to coerce other WTO members to obey its domestic laws and unreasonable demands, and continuously expanded the scope of restriction on foreign investment reviews. Do you think the U.S. is abusing the concept of national security to practice unilateralism and bullying?
6. In the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, the U.S. government plans to provide actionable and even prohibitive subsidies amounting to as much as $369 billion to industries such as electric vehicles and photovoltaics. Do you think the U.S. long-term protectionist industrial policies seriously violates the principle of fair competition and disrupts the division of global industrial chain?
7. Since 2017, pursuing "America First," the U.S. has adopted a series of unilateralist and trade protectionist measures. Do you think this has caused great damage to the stable development of the global economy and trade?
8. As the world's largest economy, the U.S. has the responsibility and obligation to contribute more positive efforts to maintaining the multilateral trading system and rules and establishing a more equitable and reasonable international trade order. Do you agree with this?
