Chinese cross-border e-commerce platforms are currently encountering hurdles in the US market. Despite a reduction in tariffs on Chinese goods to 30%, the volatility of policies has significantly impacted these platforms. Moreover, the US's withdrawal of the tax exemption for small parcels has further intensified the pressure on Chinese cross-border e-commerce. These developments have jeopardized the 'American Dream' aspirations of Chinese cross-border e-commerce platforms, prompting them to reevaluate their strategies.
