The US today asked China to provide fair and reciprocal treatment to US firms and cease predatory trade and investment practices.
The American message comes ahead of US President Donald Trump’s maiden trip to China next month.It also comes less than a week after Secretary of State Rex Tillerson accused China on indulging in “predatory economics”.
A senior Trump administration official, during a briefing with White House reporters, said Trump during his meetings with top Chinese official will seek to secure China’s commitments to exert more pressure on North Korea and to rebalance US-China economic relations.
Trump is expected to arrive in China on a state visit on November 8.
