Beyond that, we must also modernise global rules to find genuine, lasting remedies to the new barriers and distortions that have emerged in the last decades.

In short, tariffs and trade barriers tend to be pro-producer and anti-consumer. The effect of tariffs and trade barriers on businesses, consumers and the government shifts over time. In the short The Peterson Institute for International Economics estimates that ending all trade barriers would increase U.S. income by $500 billion. Increasing U.S. protectionism will further slow  economic growth. It would cause more layoffs, not fewer. If the United States closes its borders, other countries will do the same.
