Other countries are not going to let the USA determine domestic tax policies.

If they did remove VAT from items imported from the United States it would lead to the absurd situation where a US merchant could import an item from Germany without VAT and then sell it to consumers in Germany without VAT undercutting German retailers and denying the German government their consumption tax revenue

No problem. In that case the US can restore balance in the trade relationship with tariffs.
