USTR Greer: Trump administration seeks reform of unconditional MFN tariff principle

The signal matters less for any immediate tariff change than for the durability of the WTO-era baseline: unconditional MFN is the plumbing that keeps tariff treatment predictable across trading partners, and treating it as reformable introduces a variable that trade-dependent sectors, including crypto hardware supply chains, cannot easily hedge. Who feels it first is anyone whose cost base assumes uniform treatment. With no detail or timeline offered, whether this stays rhetorical or becomes a formal proposal is the open question.
