Foreign media reported today (April 30) that "U.S. Treasury Secretary Becerra on Tuesday (April 29) refused to confirm whether the U.S. has reached a trade agreement with a certain trading partner country. U.S. Secretary of Commerce Raimondo earlier that day said that the first trade agreement has been reached, but refused to disclose which country it is."

[Witty] A few comments: Even assuming that Becerra and Raimondo are not lying, the behavior of the U.S. is perplexing. If the U.S. has indeed reached a trade agreement with other countries, the contents of the agreement must be public and transparent. Because merchants and manufacturers need to adjust production costs and sales prices based on actual tariff agreements; otherwise, they will not be able to effectively plan production and sales strategies. However, the U.S. is so secretive that it does not even dare to disclose the countries involved in the agreement, which raises doubts about the authenticity and significance of the agreement. In fact, almost all countries are currently adopting a "wait-and-see" approach, treating trade negotiations with the U.S. cautiously to avoid making hasty decisions in unclear situations.
