Hoa Kỳ thúc đẩy các quy tắc thương mại toàn cầu cho thời đại AI, tập trung vào dòng dữ liệu và bảo vệ mã nguồn

The Huoxing Finance report states that on July 22, according to WSJ, apart from tariff policies, the Trump administration in the United States is advancing a longer-term strategic plan to establish a new generation of global trade rules centered on cross-border data flows, cloud computing, software, and artificial intelligence through agreements with major trading partners. The report notes that currently, 43 jurisdictions worldwide have implemented 146 digital trade barriers, including digital services taxes, data localization requirements, restrictions on cross-border data flows, and measures requiring companies to surrender source code, technical data, and business data. The United States believes these rules are undermining the competitiveness of its technology companies and digital economy. Recent agreements reached by the United States with Indonesia, Cambodia, Malaysia, and others have incorporated provisions prohibiting forced technology transfer, ensuring free cross-border data flows, banning governments from requiring companies to submit source code, and maintaining tariff-free electronic transmissions, regarded as an initial framework for digital trade rules in the AI era. Analysts believe that future international competition over data governance, AI regulation, and digital trade standards will become a crucial dimension of global economic rivalry.
