Also see No special treatment for US exports:

...As far as the local exports into the US now protected by the GSP are concerned, Ries said they could still qualify for duty-free protection under the Caribbean Basin Initiative (CBI) which was not a trade agreement but a United States law that did not provide any such preferential treatment for American exports into the region.

"US exports have nothing to do with CBI. CBI doesn't have anything to do with our exports to the region. It's only with the region's exports, the countries of the region exporting goods to the United States," Ries said.
