You can't just undo tariffs by cancelling them.

So you tariff steel from china (or whatever), and they will tariff some of your exports (or other). Bad for everyone probably. But now it's done.

Removing the tariffs will only make things worse if china (in this example) isn't OK with rolling back what they did.
