“China’s decision to accumulate roughly $ 2,000 bn in foreign currency reserves was, in my view, a blunder. Now it has a choice. If it wants its claims on the US to be safe, it must facilitate an adjustment in the global balance of payments. If it and other surplus counties wish to run huge surpluses and accumulate vast financial claims, they should expect defaults. They cannot have both safe foreign assets and huge surpluses. They must choose between them. It may seem unfair. But whoever said life was fair?”Martin Wolf“ It is in Beijing’s interests to lend Geithner a hand” Financial Times, June 9, 2009

“President Barack Obama seeks to alter the modalities of strategic dialogue to pursue a broader strategic agenda in order to seek solutions to the global financial and security crises, climate change, and holdover issues from the Bush administration such as the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Iran non-proliferation, value of the yuan, trade deficit, intellectual property rights and human rights.One challenge for the new administration will be to prioritize the issues on the agenda, although all of them must be pursued simultaneously.” David Shambaugh, Brookings Institute, May 2008

“Facts and Law in the Case”or Fairness Hypocrisy • In one of his first major decisions on trade policy, President Obama opted Friday to impose a tariff on tires from China, a move that fulfills his campaign promise to "crack down" on imports that unfairly undermine American workers but risks angering the nation's second-largest trading partner. • "The president sent the message that we expect others to live by the rules, just as we do," Leo W. Gerard, president of the union, said Friday night. • The President decided to remedy the clear disruption to the U.S. tire industry based on the facts and the law in this case," the White House said.
