ADOPT NEW TRADE AND INVESTMENT AGREEMENTS AND MODERNIZE EXISTING ONES:
The United States will pursue bilateral trade and investment agreements with countries that commit to fair and reciprocal
trade and will modernize existing agreements to ensure they are consistent with those principles. Agreements must adhere to high standards in intellectual property, digital trade, agriculture, labor, and the environment.
COUNTER UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES:
The United States will counter all unfair trade practices that distort markets using all appropriate means, from dialogue to enforcement tools.
COUNTER FOREIGN CORRUPTION:
Using our economic and diplomatic tools, the United States will continue to target corrupt foreign officials and work with countries to improve their ability to fight corruption so U.S. companies can compete fairly in transparent business climates.
WORK WITH LIKE-MINDED PARTNERS:
The United States will work with like-minded partners to preserve and modernize the rules of a fair and reciprocal
economic order. Together we will emphasize fair trade enforcement actions when necessary, as well as multinational efforts to ensure transparency and adherence to international standards within trade and investment projects.
FACILITATE NEW MARKET OPPORTUNITIES:
The United States will partner with countries as they build their export markets, promote free market competition, and incentivize private sector growth. We will expand U.S. trade and investment opportunities and increase the market base for U.S. goods and services.
