Current as of: February 2010 The President may, whenever he determines such action
appropriate, negotiate with representatives of foreign governments
in an effort to obtain agreements limiting the export from such
countries and the importation into the United States of any
agricultural commodity or product manufactured therefrom or
textiles or textile products, and the President is authorized to
issue regulations governing the entry or withdrawal from warehouse
of any such commodity, product, textiles, or textile products to
carry out any such agreement. In addition, if a multilateral
agreement, including but not limited to the Agreement on Textiles
and Clothing referred to in section 3511(d)(4) of title 19, has
been or is concluded under the authority of this section among
countries accounting for a significant part of world trade in the
articles with respect to which the agreement was concluded, the
President may also issue, in order to carry out such agreement,
regulations governing the entry or withdrawal from warehouse of the
same articles which are the products of countries not parties to
the agreement, or countries to which the United States does not
apply the agreement. Nothing herein shall affect the authority
provided under section 624 of this title. Legislative History Prev ________________________________________________________________________
