The US should focus on achieving economic independence from China rather than pressuring Beijing to change "unfair" trade practices, US Trade Representative Katherine Tai will suggest Wednesday, as a shift in strategy toward the Asian giant.
"While we continue to keep the door open to conversations with China... we also need to acknowledge the agreement's limitations, and turn the page on the old playbook with China, which focused on changing its behavior," she will tell the House of Representatives, according to an advance copy of her speech shared with the media.
When she joined the administration of President Joe Biden in early 2021, Tai asked her staff to analyze the impact of these practices on US industry and workers, as well as on those of US allies.
