Reference News website reported on May 19th citing a report from the US Fortune magazine website on May 18th that US Treasury Secretary Scott Beesont said, "strategic uncertainty" is a strategy while too much certainty would let other countries "take advantage of us in negotiations".

Currently, Trump's repeated tariff policies have caused great impact on enterprises, trade partners and financial markets.

The report suggests that Beesont implied that the fluctuation of Trump administration's tariff policy is a means rather than a defect.

In a CNN program "State of the Union" broadcast on May 18th, he talked about this issue and said that the government's negotiation strategy is "strategic uncertainty".

He explained: "If we release too much certainty to other countries, they will take advantage of us in negotiations. I believe that the final result of the negotiation will make retailers, American people and American workers better off." (Compiled by Wang Dongdong)
