On: US Announces Withdraw From Postal Treaty

[Spooky23]

Huh?

epacketEMS is a class of mail with tracking. How is it unrelated?

[ikeboy → Spooky23]

ePacket rates are negotiated directly, not set under the UPU treaty which the US is planning on exiting.

The USPS makes a profit on epacket shipments [0][1], but loses money on UPU inbound shipments. The two aren't directly related.
