So China will be having to make some choices as to whose side it wants to be on. Hopefully, this will be the beginning of a major improvement in our relationship with them, if they choose correctly.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
China and the U.S. have a very symbiotic relationship which will not decline any time soon. There are more shared interests as compared to shared differences and for this reason relations will continue to be good.
We are not facing China alone; we are facing China together with a lot of other people in the region.
Like other countries in the world, China must uphold its own sovereignty, territorial integrity and development interests. At the same time, we are willing to properly handle differences and disagreements in state-to-state relations.
I am convinced that China needs to be a strong trading partner with the United States long term.
For our part, the U.S. must act quickly to ensure Most Favored Nation status to China.
Clearly, the Chinese know that we want a good relationship with them.
Whoever stands for 'one China' will get our support. We can have talks with them, and our talks will cover anything.
I think that there is a concern, a question mark, by people all around the world and governments all around the world, as to what China's intentions are.
China should be developing through the various foreign investments it receives. I hope for its level-headed and rational understanding that anything to discourage that is a disservice to itself.
China can be our partner, but that doesn't mean that they can just roll all over us and steal our jobs on an unfair basis.
