2020年CRI US bullying policies won't make it great again

 

The Chinese Academy of Social Sciences held a high-level national think tank forum¹ in Beijing on Wednesday, where experts and scholars gathered to debate "The problems and solutions of the China-U.S. trade frictions²".

Wu Baiyi, director of the Institute of American Studies at the academy, said that in the past 20 years, economic globalization has been developing rapidly, and that the United States had played a leading role in this process and reaped huge dividends³. But it has also led to structural⁴ changes in its economy and rising trade deficits⁵.

Although the United States remains⁶ the world's number one power, it faces problems with its internal governance, which are mainly manifested in the irreversible trend of industrial transfers and uneven⁷ income distribution.

For more, Professor Wu Baiyi earlier spoke⁸ with China plus.
