Sino-US Joint Commission on Commerce and trade between the two countries, the meeting is the highest level of bilateral economic and trade negotiation mechanism. Early this month, Locke published statement said that the meeting of the two countries address key trade issues provides important opportunities, including intellectual property rights, government procurement and innovation policy. Related expert said that Chinese demand for this meeting is expected to be in opposition to trade protection, let go of China high technology export restrictions and other issues, but as both sides claim does not match and the topic is not new, after consulting the parties to reach a consensus.
United States demands a "false proposition"
For Locke's intellectual property rights, government procurement and innovation policy issues, interview of experts agreed that the United States is "false proposition", just to find an excuse to alter trade issues.
United States have always thought that the lack of intellectual property protection in China, to the detriment of the United States intellectual property rights and interests of all units. To this end, the Department of Commerce's international trade and economic cooperation between the Institute of international market research section, Bai said, our developing countries to developed countries standard enterprise and product line is a necessary stage, and in intellectual property protection have been diligent all the time, the United States should not only see on the surface, it should be the solution to this problem progress and efforts ".
For government procurement, United States that our purchasing their goods is not conducive to fair competition in the United States product, Bai that my Government has consistently positive "go out" and "bringing in" policy, the procurement market is not limited in China, but the world helping national enterprise does not exist. Minister of Commerce Chen Deming of China had also said that the China Government procurement, on all enterprise in China, including foreign-funded enterprises alike.
It is worth noting that the United States Congress passed the contains requirements for the purchase of United States goods "provisions of the Act," why is not yet perfect, its own requirements in other countries. Bai said.
Compared to the intellectual property rights and public procurement, innovation is the United States in recent years to throw another new issue, the United States believes that China's scientific and technological innovation in support of a suspicion of exclusive benefits. To this end, Bai said that China is a developing country, innovation is the support for economic development of the necessary means, but our innovative support limited infrastructure, providing innovation platform, such as the establishment of high-tech industrial zone, etc., direct-funded project in reduce. The Chinese Academy of social sciences, Institute of world economics and politics Division Director, international trade, with respect, the United States Songhong also experienced a period of rapid development, but also on national innovation support measures, "the problem is not a problem, there is no need to compromise.
China demands may reduce trade friction
For China at the current meeting of the Joint Commission on Commerce and trade, as of now, the relevant departments are not clear. Songhong prediction that China will resist trade protection and launch of the Doha talks and consultations with the United States expanded focus, the cause of this issue is "made in China" is initiated by the United States frequently encountered trade remedy investigations.
Foreign Trade University International Economics and trade, zhaozhong show that the reduction of trade friction issues, two points deserve emphasis consultations, one of China's "market economy status" when to get the United States admit; two is the United States when relaxing on the China high technology export restrictions.
The data from the Department of Commerce, the United States in November on Chinese products total initiated 18 or so trade relief survey this month to date, two have been launched. United States has not recognized China's market economy status, a frequent sponsor key trade remedy investigations. Pursuant to the provisions of the WTO, on the non-market economy countries, the survey States may look for alternative countries to calculate the dumping margin products, United States according to their own "need" to select alternative might, lead was found in our products, the existence of dumping or subsidy determined rates often, have to bear.
23 November, the US Department of Commerce announced the strengthening of trade relief law enforcement policy notice, on anti-dumping in non-market economy country alternative state value, such as the selected alternative countries for the import statistics do not include international shipping charges, commissions and working time in foreign countries, the US Department of Commerce will determine the normal value increase these costs in the process. This will enable China to launch trade remedy investigations easier, you may have more Chinese companies or products to be determined the existence of dumping, the imposition of anti-dumping duty rate will be higher.
Songhong said, "China's industrial structure in the upgrade, and United States occurred in the area of trade friction and more focus on high-end products, this will cause the United States in the field of high technology trade protection of sensitive reaction". Although the United States several times that you want to relax on the China high technology products of export restrictions, but songhong pointed out that the relaxed is a high-tech "shelf life" of products, many of the products have been developed in China, the United States should have been more sincere cooperation ".
United States must change the "selfish" thinking
Started in 1983 by the Joint Commission on Commerce and trade, is known as the Sino-US trade friction "fire". The success of this session of Sino-American trade friction "fire fighting", became the focus of attention of the outside world, space not Bai admits, "our policy is in place, there is no need to make concessions." Songhong also believes that "could not resolve the problem.
From customs statistics, January-October, the United States trade deficit of $ 1505.88. Bai said, by the US side of the three issues can be seen, its real needs are changing-US trade deficit situation in the financial crisis to protect its solid economic development, services to double its exports in the essence, demand-driven, the United States won't budge.
"U.s.-China Joint Commission on Commerce and trade is our trade relations with China an important mechanism. "Kirk said," to ensure
US-China trade benefits is the United States by the workers, peasants, small businesses need. It is true that the country's need for the purpose of the bilateral dialogue, but this kind of "selfish" thinking, to play in the Joint Commission on Commerce and the role of the Conference, obviously.
