[앵커]

Like Trump, Democratic candidate Joe Biden, who will be the next president of the United States, places the highest priority on protecting American jobs and is likely to continue in his own interest.

However, it is clear that the position to respect the world trade order is clear and the trade environment between Korea and the United States is expected to improve gradually.

Democratic presidential candidate Biden emphasized the promise to bring home American companies with factories abroad.

The plan is to increase the number of jobs by strengthening the national establishment of corporate supply chains through sound fiscal policies.

[조 바이든 / 미국 민주당 대선 후보 : 월스트리트의 무디스는 저의 경제공약을 살핀 결과 일자리 천860만 개가 창출될 것으로 전망했습니다. 트럼프 정부보다 국내총생산, GDP 규모가 1조 달러 더 많아지는 것입니다.]

Biden has a clear will to pursue a ‘worker-based trade policy’ but is critical of Trump’s trade policy, which has abused trade relief measures such as anti-dumping.

[조 바이든 / 미국 민주당 대선 후보 : 트럼프는 통상 정책을 말해왔지만 결국 재앙을 불러서 위스콘신의 유제품 산업을 파괴했습니다.]

Biden is expected to take steps to mitigate the trade environment between Korea and the United States, as Biden is compliant with WTO regulations and prefers to expand the market through trade.

[문종철 / 산업연구원 연구위원 : 바이든의 경우 정치적으로 동맹들과의 결속을 중요시하기 때문에 트럼프처럼 동맹들한테도 그렇게 빡빡하게 나가지는 않을 거라는 가정이 전제된 거죠.]

However, the main variable is the position of the ‘New Cold War’, which sees China’s economic growth as a threat and will form a siege with allies to contain China.

Therefore, it is feared that Biden, an expert in parliamentary diplomacy, will increase pressure on Korea to choose between the United States and China.

After the new United States government took office, the fact that protective trade measures, such as compensatory tariffs, were routinely implemented in the job-intensive steel industry, could be another negative factor for the national industry.

[권혁민 / 전경련 산업전략팀장 : 특히 미국은 대선 이후 이런 (무역보호)조치들을 집중해서 철강 산업분야 일자리를 지키고 이를 통해 정치적 지지를 유지하려는 경향이 나타나게 됩니다.]

Furthermore, candidate Biden proposed a plan to impose a ‘carbon adjustment tax’ by 2025 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and there is the possibility of a new trade dispute with Korea.
