Members of RCEP are worst hit by tariffs

All but three of the countries you cite as being mostly heavily affected by US tariffs, are members of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership, which includes China and Australia. We’ll just have to put more effort into that.

There is also still APEC, but I guess the US’ membership of that is effectively ended by Trump, and Russia’s membership is problematic.
