    The Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) has decided to indefinitely suspend additional duties on French products that were set to begin on January 6, 2021, in response to France's Digital Services Tax (DST). This decision comes as investigations into similar taxes in other countries continue, with the aim of allowing more time for discussion and potential resolution. The suspension reflects ongoing consideration of public comments and the advice of advisory committees. The USTR will keep monitoring developments in both the France DST investigation and other related investigations.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. decided to pause extra taxes on things from France because France had started a tax on digital services. This gives them more time to talk it over and hopefully work things out.
