says

The Trump administration says China has failed to alter its "unfair" trade
practices, part of an update of the U.S. Trade Representative’s Section 301
investigation into China’s intellectual property and technology transfer
policies, which sparked U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods.
The report accuses China of continuing a state-backed campaign of cyber-
enabled theft of U.S. intellectual property and discriminatory technology
licensing restrictions.
Despite the relaxation of some foreign ownership restrictions, "the Chinese
government has persisted in using foreign investment restrictions to require
or pressure the transfer of technology from U.S. companies to Chinese
entities," according to the report.
The timing of the release just 10 days before Pres. Trump is due to meet
Chinese Pres. Xi at a Nov. 30-Dec. 1 Group of 20 summit in Buenos Aires
appears to be a move by some of the more hawkish members of the Trump
administration, such as Trade Rep. Lighthizer, to bolster their case ahead
of the summit. |
