Beijing time on the morning of December 2nd, according to foreign media reports, Alibaba now inherits the traditional role of Amazon, becoming the number one public enemy of traditional retailers in the United States.

At present, Alibaba is embroiled in a political struggle in Washington because of its global ambition.

Over the years, American entity retailers have been attacking Amazon, claiming that they benefit from the so-called "business tax loophole".

Now, they are pointing at Alibaba. They believe that China's e-commerce giant will become the next beneficiary of the business tax loophole.

Main Street Fairness, a group of traditional retailers, such as Home Depot and JC Penney, has launched an advertisement for Alibaba, lobbying US lawmakers, saying Alibaba will "stifle" local retailers unless they introduce a bill to stop business tax loopholes.

Insiders say the move shows that Alibaba's US competitors are preparing to involve Alibaba in a political dispute, even before Alibaba launched the Taobao English version.

Spokesman Joshua Baca (Joshua Baca) said: "we believe that Alibaba's use of tax collection loopholes is only a matter of time."

The Alibaba rebutted the video advertisement on Monday.

Alibaba said: "this advertisement is seriously untrue.

The Alibaba pays taxes according to the laws of the country in which the business is located, and is no exception in the United States.

Through our various network assets, Alibaba is committed to providing us companies with opportunities to export their products and services to the Chinese market. "

Now, Amazon is no longer a target because it has changed its attitude to support the loopholes in business tax through legislation.

But eBay still has objections that it will raise prices, thereby hurting the interests of small businesses on its website.

The advertisement was broadcast on television and the Internet on Sunday.

"They just want to make use of anti Chinese sentiment," according to an industry executive who opposed traditional retailers.
