WASHINGTON – The U.S. government is "making progress" in eliminating trade barriers with China as the Obama administration pursues its goal of rapidly growing American exports, Commerce Secretary Gary Locke said Thursday.
Mr. Locke, in an interview with The Wall Street Journal, cited advances with China on several fronts, ranging from eliminating discriminatory technology policies to removing redundant regulation of medical equipment to overhauling other non-tariff barriers.
"We have seen improvements. We have seen changes,'' Mr. Locke said. "That doesn't mean we're ever satisfied."
