Voice of America News, September 2016 9/3 Saibal Dasgupta http://www.voanews.com/a/g20-china-trade/3492531.html China is spearheading the campaign for openness because it fears that Chinese exporters would face stiffer resistance in Western countries due to of the rise of protectionist sentiments. Support for protectionism was evident during the Brexit debate in Britain, and in the ongoing presidential race in the United States. Parts of Europe, including Germany, have seen protests by jobless steel workers, blaming China for their plight. "China is worried about growing resistance to its goods in foreign markets. But its own protectionism is politically too costly for President Xi Jinping to alter," David Kelly, head of consulting firm China Policy told VOA. China is anxious to strengthen its image as a fair trader because of accusations that the government subsidies local industries to give Chinese exporters a price advantage on international markets. It is this impression that leads to many countries imposing anti-dumping sanctions on Chinese goods, which is a major hurdle for exporters in China. "Chinese leaders are more interested in consolidating China’s image as a country which is credible, stable and well-resourced financially," Kelly said. Beijing wants Western nations to lift anti-dumping sanctions against Chinese goods but would do little to create a level playing field for foreign investors, analysts said. 2NC/1NR- China Relations Disadvantage - North Korea Link Extensions
Council on Foreign Relations, February 2016 2/18, http://www.cfr.org/china/china-north-korea-relationship/p11097 China provides North Korea with most of its food and energy supplies and accounts for more than 70 percent of North Korea's total trade volume (PDF). “China is currently North Korea’s only economic backer of any importance,” writes Nicholas Eberstadt, senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. In September 2015, the two countries opened a bulk cargo and container shipping route to boost North Korea’s export of coal to China and China established a high-speed rail route between the Chinese border city of Dandong and Shenyang, the provincial capital of China’s northeastern Liaoning province. In October 2015, the Guomenwan border trade zone opened in Dandong with the intention of boosting bilateral economic linkages, much like the Rason economic zone and the Sinujiu special administrative zone established in North Korea in the early 1990s and 2002, respectively. Dandong is a critical hub for trade, investment, and tourism for the two neighbors—exchanges with North Korea make up 40 percent of the city’s total trade. Due to North Korea’s increasing isolation, its dependence on China continues to grow, as indicated by the significant trade imbalance between the two countries. Some experts see the trade deficit as an indirect Chinese subsidy, given that North Korea cannot finance its trade deficit through borrowing. 2NC/1NR- China Relations Disadvantage - Bilateral Investment Treaty Link Extensions
Reuters, June 2016 June 6, “China to submit 'negative list' for U.S. investment treaty talks next week” http://www.reuters.com/article/us-china-usa-trade-idUSKCN0YS024 China will submit next week its "negative list" offer of sectors that would remain off-limits to U.S. investment in a U.S.-China bilateral investment treaty (BIT), Vice Premier Wang Yang said on Monday. Wang made the comments in opening remarks to the economic track of the Strategic and Economic Dialogue talks in Beijing. U.S. officials have said a negative list that greatly reduces the number of off-limits sectors is critical to reaching a deal. U.S. Treasury Secretary Jack Lew also said he looked forward to seeing the new negative list when U.S. and Chinese BIT negotiators meet next week in Washington. "The United States stands ready to advance the ongoing bilateral investment treaty negotiations provided that China is prepared to move forward in negotiating a high-standard and mutually beneficial agreement," Lew said. Lew also urged China to remain clear in its communications about foreign exchange policy and implementation. China to submit 'negative list' for U.S. investment treaty talks next week "A market-determined exchange rate with two-way flexibility will help foster a more efficient allocation of capital," he said. Lew said earlier he hoped the two countries would make progress on market access issues as well as the problem of excess industrial capacity in China during this week's talks. Wang highlighted the difficulties arising from the rising interest-rate trend in the United States. "Expectations on interest rate rises by the U.S. Federal Reserve have increased uncertainties on economic growth of emerging market economies," Wang said. Speaking later to reporters, Chinese Vice Minister of Commerce Zhang Xiangchen was asked about another area of trade controversy between the two countries, China's so-called "secure and controllable" provisions. Foreign insurers have raised concerns about new Chinese cyber security regulations that require "secure and controllable" information technology. Zhang said concerns over security reviews went both ways. "The security review issue is a concern of both sides. China also hopes the U.S. can treat Chinese enterprises equally during security reviews and prevent security reviews from becoming a barrier to cooperation between Chinese and U.S. companies."
