Trade friction object "transformation and upgrading"

Why does the U.S. make frequent exports to China? The director of the Institute of International Economics of the Guangdong Provincial Academy of Social Sciences, Qiu Shan, analyzed with the Yangcheng Evening News reporter: “The big background is the slow recovery of the global economy. The high unemployment rate in developed countries has caused protection protectionism to flourish. The direct reason is that this year is the US general election. In the past year, politicians who attacked China’s exports in order to win votes had influenced the employment of the United States as a good natural channel. This phenomenon has to be 'attacked' almost every four years.

According to Khushan, it is necessary to pay attention to the fact that the object of US trade friction with China is also a “transition and upgrading” trend. In the past, there were more products with relatively low technological content, such as wooden floors and metal products. Nowadays, more and more high-tech products such as solar panels and auto parts have been targeted. The important development direction of "transition and upgrading".
