BTCCSquare news:
Seoul is actively engaging Taipei to coordinate responses to looming U.S. chip tariffs, with South Korea’s trade minister highlighting potential collaboration. This follows Seoul’s recent deal with Washington to reduce tariffs in exchange for investments in key sectors—a framework Taiwan now seeks to replicate.
U.S. officials have privately signaled delays in implementing semiconductor tariffs, potentially disrupting Trump-era economic plans. The ambiguity has sparked tension in tech markets, with South Korea securing terms that Taiwan has yet to match. No direct talks between Seoul and Taipei have been confirmed.
