Trade Talk: Understanding the Trade and Competitiveness Landscape Between the U.S. and China Online
Presented by the International Trade Administration in partnership with the Commerce Research Library
Ongoing U.S.-China trade relations (influenced by the Phase 1 trade deal) have exposed vulnerabilities in the U.S. supply chain and amplified matters of national security between the two countries. Three experts with backgrounds in industry, government, and academia will share their thoughts on U.S.-Chinese competitiveness and how the U.S. government can effectively respond to Chinese trade policies to bolster the bilateral relationship. Topics which may be covered include key U.S. economic issues such as the trade deficit, capital flows, Research & Development, along with onshoring and diversifying product supply chains.
