Vice President Mike Pence Speaks on China at Hudson Institute
The Vice President spoke to what is being done (e.g., “National Security Strategy” that President Trump released last December and implementing tariffs on $250 billion in Chinese goods) to oppose such tools. Pence said that the president has also made clear that “we’ll levy even more tariffs, with the possibility of substantially more than doubling that number, unless a fair and reciprocal deal is made.”
He also cited current military dangers (e.g., a Chinese naval vessel coming within 45 yards of the USS Decatur as it conducted freedom-of-navigation operations in the South China Sea), the powerful influence of China in Hollywood, the theft of American intellectual property, meddling in the 2018 midterm elections, and the persecution of Christians, Buddhists, and Uyghur Muslims in China.
The Vice President made clear that “we don’t want China’s markets to suffer. In fact, we want them to thrive. But the United States wants Beijing to pursue trade policies that are free, fair, and reciprocal.”
The Vice President ended with these words: "The great Chinese story-teller Lu Xun often lamented that his country 'has either looked down at foreigners as brutes, or up to them as saints, but never as equals.' Today, America is reaching out our hand to China; we hope that Beijing will soon reach back--with deeds, not words, and with renewed respect for America. But we will not relent until our relationship with China is grounded in fairness, reciprocity, and respect for sovereignty.
