Recently issued the following statement on the 2012 national trade assessment (NTE) report.

The US national trade assessment report is compiled annually by the US Trade Representative Office (USTR), which examines the foreign trade barriers faced by US companies over the past year.

Through the US national trade assessment report, we can understand the industry development of our country, so that we can correctly face the challenges of the world, increase our understanding of the market, and deal with the challenges facing the global market in a timely manner.


Kevin Burke, President and chief executive officer of the AAFA, said: "the American clothing and footwear industry maintains 4 million US employment opportunities while looking for opportunities to create more job opportunities. This capability depends on the open markets all over the world.

Like other industries, the apparel and footwear industry in the United States will continue to face challenges and challenges in the global market.


"No matter what the United States exports or imports from other countries, the clothing and footwear manufacturers in the United States often face high tariffs and other trade restrictions," Burke said.

And other major markets continue to implement destructive and expensive policies against US industries, thereby weakening the competitiveness of US companies and weakening their ability to employ American workers.


Burke said, "we will continue to work with the Obama administration, Congress, and our international trading partners to further eliminate global trade barriers.

Only by seeking new market opening-up and seeking new international trade partners, such as p Pacific Partnership, can we achieve wider cooperation and uniform regulations and standards, and actively combat intellectual property theft. Only in this way can we achieve real progress.
