Every day, German consumers receive more than 400,000 parcels from China. &quot;We need to resolve this issue as quickly as possible,&quot; said Merz. &quot;Consumer protection, health, and product safety must be guaranteed. The European Commission must take urgent action,&quot; he emphasized. Speaking about how Europe should respond to the U.S. government&rsquo;s tariff policy, Merz noted that he is closely cooperating on the matter with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Germany&#39;s acting chancellor Olaf Scholz. &ldquo;We are in constant dialogue with the head of government and largely share the same assessment of the situation,&rdquo; Merz said. According to Merz, under President Donald Trump, Washington&rsquo;s political direction may remain unstable in the coming years. &ldquo;I will discuss this with President Trump and try to understand what divides us and what unites us,&rdquo; he said. The German politician also stated that he has planned a &ldquo;timely&rdquo; meeting with the head of the White House. Berlin&rsquo;s strategy toward Trump combines firmness and flexibility. &ldquo;I rely on both. We must protect our interests but also continue seeking solutions,&rdquo; said Merz. The leader of the Christian Democratic Union believes the trade conflict ultimately harms all sides. In his opinion, the single goal should be to create an open and free transatlantic trade zone. &ldquo;This is the only way to ensure prosperity for all,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;In this regard, I share Elon Musk&rsquo;s view: zero tariffs would benefit everyone,&rdquo; Merz concluded.Powered by <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1" title="Froala Editor">Froala Editor</a>

Amid the trade dispute between China and the United States, Germany's market may be flooded with Chinese products. This was stated by Friedrich Merz, a potential future chancellor of Germany, in an interview with Funke Mediengruppe.

&ldquo;Revenue growth should not come from increasing tax rates. On the contrary, if we support entrepreneurs and expand the tax base, revenue will grow and entrepreneurs will be satisfied,&rdquo; said the President. Entrepreneurs will now be allowed to pay these taxes in two installments throughout the year. The President also paid special attention to creating equal conditions for businesses: &ldquo;We must open the way for our local enterprises, increase production, and create opportunities to enter high-value markets with new products,&rdquo; said the head of state. However, it was pointed out that some goods are entering our markets at artificially low prices, which weakens the position of local producers. For example, a locally produced mini refrigerator with a cost price of $220 is sold at an average of $250, for which $30 VAT is paid. Meanwhile, an imported refrigerator of the same type is declared at an artificially low price of $25, resulting in only $3 VAT. That means the local producer pays ten times more tax than the importer. According to a new decree, the procedure for determining the customs value of imported goods will now be fully aligned with international standards. Criticism addressed to three or four agencies was also considered relevant for other ministries and sectors. It was noted that bureaucracy still remains high in the systems of the ministries of ecology, agriculture, construction, energy, higher education, the cadastral agency, the roads committee, the industrial safety committee, and the construction inspection. Leaders of these ministries and agencies were instructed to draw conclusions from the meeting and make services more accessible to the public and businesses. Overall, all levels of leadership were tasked with maintaining regular dialogue with producers and exporters. During the meeting, reports from regional and sectoral leaders, as well as feedback from entrepreneurs, were heard.Powered by <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1" title="Froala Editor">Froala Editor</a>


At the meeting held on April 18, the President addressed several issues concerning entrepreneurs. He emphasized the importance of studying the impact of increasing coefficients for land tax and rental payments on businesses, and of making decisions based on the capabilities and financial conditions of entrepreneurs.

Revenue should be increased not by raising taxes, but by supporting entrepreneurs

Under the amendment to the Tax Code, from September 1, 2024, to September 1, 2027, tax benefits previously granted to members of the &quot;Hunarmand&quot; Association will also apply to individual entrepreneurs engaged in the production of jewelry and who are members of the &quot;Uzbekzargarsanoati&quot; Association. Additionally, real estate and land plots used in production by these entrepreneurs will be exempt from property and land taxes. According to the amendment to the Law &quot;On Precious Metals and Precious Stones,&quot; refining enterprises will be granted the following rights without undergoing additional permitting procedures: to sell precious metals to jewelry manufacturers in convenient forms and quantities; to produce and sell souvenir coins made from precious metals. Moreover, jewelry manufacturers will have the right to sell semi-finished jewelry products made from precious metals to other jewelry manufacturers. The value of such semi-finished products must be independently set by the jewelry manufacturers but not lower than the morning fixing price of the London Bullion Market Association and the Central Bank&rsquo;s exchange rate on the settlement day.Powered by <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1" title="Froala Editor">Froala Editor</a>

According to Law No. O‘RQ-1059 of the Republic of Uzbekistan dated April 18, 2025, amendments and additions have been made to certain legislative acts.

Jewelry Manufacturers to Receive Increased Support

&quot;One thing must be clearly understood: if entrepreneurs work in high-value markets, they will be motivated to increase production, improve quality, and gain more benefits,&quot; the President said. The excise tax on sugar will be abolished. Restrictions on the import of powdered milk will also be lifted. As a result of these changes, the annual turnover of approximately 5,500 confectionery and soft drink production enterprises &mdash; employing around 40,000 people &mdash; is expected to reach at least 50 trillion soums.Powered by <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1" title="Froala Editor">Froala Editor</a>

At a video conference chaired by the President, it was announced that starting from July 1, there will be no export restrictions on any goods. Export duties will apply only to raw materials and socially important products included in 86 commodity groups. It was emphasized that this decision opens new opportunities for entrepreneurs.

A Hamas source told AFP that a written response to Israel&rsquo;s proposed 45-day ceasefire was delivered to mediators. According to the proposal, Hamas would release 10 hostages, and in return, Israel would release 1,231 Palestinian prisoners and allow humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip. The proposal also called for the disarmament of Hamas and other Palestinian factions &mdash; a condition that was rejected by the group. Hamas representative Khalil al-Hayya, currently outside the Gaza Strip, stated in a televised address: &quot;We will not be part of Netanyahu&rsquo;s policy of partial deals. We reject this approach,&quot; he said, as quoted by The Times of Israel. According to al-Hayya, Israel walked away from a ceasefire agreement signed in January, and Netanyahu has since presented &ldquo;unrealistic&rdquo; conditions. He emphasized that Hamas is ready to immediately negotiate a comprehensive exchange of all hostages for Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails &mdash; within a deal that would end the war entirely. Commenting on Hamas&#39; statement, U.S. National Security Council spokesperson James Hewitt said: &quot;Hamas&rsquo; remarks show that they are interested not in peace but in perpetual violence. The demand from the (U.S. President Donald Trump) administration remains unchanged: release the hostages &mdash; or face hell.&quot;Powered by <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1" title="Froala Editor">Froala Editor</a>

Hamas has rejected Israel’s proposal for a hostage release deal. Israel had offered a 45-day ceasefire in exchange for the release of 10 hostages. However, the group stated that they oppose any truce that does not lead to a complete end to the war.

Hamas Seeks Total, Not Temporary, End to the War

At the beginning of the meeting, the President addressed the current global economic situation. &quot;The world today is no longer the same. It&#39;s not just about tariffs or their amounts. The international institutions that ensured stable relations and mutual trust between countries for many years, along with the rules and norms they developed, are now becoming ineffective. Naturally, these processes are creating a chain reaction that could lead to a slowdown in the global economy and a reduction in international trade,&quot; said the President. During the meeting, he also noted: &quot;According to an analysis by Harvard University, over the past five years, Uzbekistan has improved its position in the Economic Complexity Index by 25 places, moving from 105th to 80th. Currently, 162 types of national products are recognized as having a &#39;competitive advantage in global markets&#39;. As a result, exports have increased 2.2 times in recent years. The foreign trade turnover has reached 57% in relation to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). This is a very significant figure, showing how dependent our economy is on external markets,&quot; the President emphasized.Powered by <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1" title="Froala Editor">Froala Editor</a>
