Reuters exclusively reports U.S. demands regular review of China trade reform

Reuters exclusively reported that the United States was calling for regular reviews of China’s progress on pledged reforms to its rules guiding intellectual property protections, technology transfers, subsidies and other issues as a condition for a trade deal. The U.S. could once again resort to tariffs if it deems Beijing has violated the agreement. A continuing threat of tariffs hanging over commerce between the world’s two largest economies would mean a deal would not end the risk of investing in businesses or assets that have been impacted by the trade war.
