洞察:
In a notable reversal of trade policy, the U.S. Department of Commerce has substantially reduced the proposed tariffs on Italian pasta makers, just ahead of their planned implementation in January 2026. Originally set at 92%, the duties have now been lowered to rates ranging from 2.26% to 13.98%, following a detailed reassessment of the companies' activities in the U.S. market. This decision directly affects the competitiveness of Italian pasta exports, which represent nearly $800 million in annual trade value in the U.S. market.
