19 in Washington, said the trade imbalance between China and a number of reasons, China is willing to strengthen communication and cooperation with the U.S. to promote trade liberalization and facilitation, to jointly improve the trade imbalance conditions.

Second, the U.S. trade discrimination. U.S. restrictions on Chinese bill, including a ban on the export of military goods, dual-use goods, civilian goods exports to China also needs scrutiny. China hopes that the Obama administration to relax such restrictions, which the U.S. employment and U.S. corporate global competition is fair. Now, China is the world's third-largest U.S. export market. As the year continues to import promotion plan, China will increase imports of U.S.. Unfortunately, the United States announced last December to relax export controls for advice bill to export divided into three categories, a total of 164 countries and regions, China is excluded. This is obviously unfavorable U.S. companies and the U.S. economy, the Chinese side hopes that the U.S. could change such policies.

Chen Deming said that some U.S. think tanks and members of Congress to the RMB exchange rate link with the Sino-US trade imbalance that the rapid appreciation of the RMB should be substantial because of Sino-US trade imbalance. Economics from the West say that a country's currency will affect the entire export trade. But if only the present trade imbalance between the two countries is not a money issue, but should explore the trade barriers between the two countries and trade liberalization and facilitation.
