Free AccessMNI: Need Sincerity In Talks To Tackle Trade War; China MOFCOM
By Iris Ouyang
BEIJING (MNI) - Negotiating in a mutually respectful way, with sincerity
and on an equal basis is the best way to tackle the spiralling trade war between
China and the U.S., China's Ministry of Commerce on Thursday.
Here are major points MNI highlights from the weekly press briefing:
--MOFCOM urged the U.S. administration to "return to a track of win-win
cooperation, " language similar to the rhetoric used over recent months.
--"China's economy's status and trend to a stable and positive growth has
not changed and it's heading to a high-quality growth," Gao Feng, ministry
spokesman said, "We hope the U.S. do not misjudge the situation, the U.S. should
stop its practices of unilateralism and protectionism."
--In response to a question regarding U.S. officials arguing that China
interfered in U.S. elections and encouraged American businesses to object to the
administration's trade action, Gao stressed China does not intend to intervene
in the U.S. domestic affairs. He said some American companies haven't spoken out
against the U.S. trade action as they fear reprisals by the U.S. government, he
added, "I don't know whether the U.S. government has taken some threatening
action (on these companies)."
--China will focus on its own economic development as the international
environment is changing, with the U.S. reaching trade deals with Mexico, Canada
and possibly a deal with South Korea, Gao said. China will continue to advance
supply-side reform and optimize economic restructuring, moving China's economy
on to a high-quality growth path, Gao stressed.
--The U.S. requiring its trading partners such as Mexico and Canada not to
sign trade agreements with so-called "non-market economies" is placing its own
domestic law above international law, and forcing its will on other countries,
the MOFCOM said. Any country should attract trading partners with its own market
potential and favourable policies instead of restricting trading partners'
economic cooperation with other countries, Gao stressed.
--Gao refuted recent U.S. arguments that China's rapid economic growth was
on the back of cheap U.S. money and dependent on the U.S. investment. Gao said
U.S. investment into China comprised 4.96% of China's total FDI since 1987.
While China recognizes the U.S. investment contribution into its economy,
economic development was mainly from opening up and reform of the economy, along
with the hard work of the Chinese people.
