Free AccessMNI POLICY: Low China Buys Not Big Issue Phase 1: Ex-PBOC Offl
BEIJING (MNI) - The size of China's current imports from the U.S. are not
good but they are not a big issue for the phase one trade deal and the Sino-U.S.
relationship, a leading former official with People's Bank of China and
International Monetary Fund said.
Zhu Min, now head of the National Financial Research Institute at Tsinghua
University, admitted that it would be "quite difficult" for China to reach the
mandated imports from the U.S. in the Phase One trade deal under current
circumstances.
China's imports from the U.S. have largely fallen behind phase one
requirements due to the fast-falling demand of China and the sapped production
capacities of the U.S. as the Covid slump weighs, Zhu said.
In the first quarter, China only imported USD700 million OF energy products
from the U.S., Zhu estimated. The number is well below the USD26.5 billion of
promises made by China in the deal.
"The good news is that both sides sat down to talk," said Zhu at a virtual
conference of World Peace Forum held by Tsing University on Wednesday.
China remains fully committed to fulfilling and implementing the phase one
deal and the U.S. also appreciated the efforts of China in improving
intellectual property protection and financial sector opening, he added.
Over last weekend, China handed a banking card clearing service license to
American Express, making the U.S. company the first foreign player to enter the
Chinese market.
