Some analysts pointed out that the new framework of the United States regards the "turning point of restoring economic leadership" and strives to strengthen influence.However, some commentators say that because of the domestic political resistance, the new framework does not include any tariffs, and it is unclear at present, so it is difficult to quantify its economic benefits.There are also some analysts that the new framework does not include reducing tariffs, and it is difficult to increase exports to the US market, which is not much beneficial for member states.

The negotiations have not yet been carried out, so it is unclear whether the new framework is required for the approval of the U.S. Congress.
