The KMT is criticizing the Taiwan government for keeping tariff discussions
opaque ... and calling for it to to submit all signed agreements between
Taiwan and the United States to the Legislative Yuan for review.

This follows a tariff deal annouced yesterday that includes a pledge to
invest at least US$250 billion in the US.

KMT Legislator Wu Tsung-hsien accused the government of withholding
information when opposition parties raised questions, adding that the
information provided yesterday remains severely insufficient.

According to the Executive Yuan, the US has agreed to lower tariffs on
Taiwanese goods from 20 percent to 15 percent, with the important provision
that the new tariffs won't be stacked on top of existing most-favored-nation
rates.

The agreement also grants semiconductors and related products the most
favorable treatment.

A KMT spokesperson said the government should have been more cautious in the
negotiations, citing the US Supreme Court's ongoing review of the
constitutionality of President Trump's tariffs.
