Donald Trump wants Robert Lighthizer back as the US Trade Representative, signaling potential shifts in global trade dynamics.

Lighthizer's Comeback Story

Lighthizer is known for his uncompromising stance in protecting American industry. His potential return makes US trading partners nervous, especially China and Russia. Previously, he advocated for higher tariffs, creating tensions in international trade. Trump aims to bring back such strategies.

No Warm Welcome from China and the WTO

Formerly an attorney for the US steel industry, Lighthizer often criticized the WTO as ineffective. This has heightened tensions with other countries. He opposed deals he believed harmed American industry and criticized Chinese manufacturers.

When Bob Lighthizer was USTR, he was bipartisan in his approach and well-respected on both sides.Congressman Brendan Boyle

What's in Store with Trump and Lighthizer Back in Charge

Trump has expressed intentions to reinstate high tariffs, likely prompting new trade conflicts. Analysts suggest this could significantly impact the global economy, particularly in Europe and Asia. The EU may face US countermeasures, complicating bilateral relations.

Trump's win is bad news for Asia.

With Trump and Lighthizer back in key positions, expect a tougher US trade policy, potentially altering the global economic landscape.
