WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - Republican presidential hopeful Ron DeSantis said on Monday that the unbalanced relations between the United States and China, complete with Beijing enjoying a preferential trade status, should end.
The Florida governor also noted that the United States has developed a dangerous dependence on Chinese supply chains.
"We have to restore the economic sovereignty of this country and take back control of our economy from China," DeSantis stated during a campaign stop in New Hampshire. "The abusive relationship, the asymmetric relationship between our two countries must come to an end. No more massive trade deficits, no more importing of goods with stolen intellectual property, no more preferential trade status."
DeSantis also claimed US-China relations have been marred by the trade dumping, currency manipulation and espionage.
