  • The U.S. State Department has changed references to China on its website, emphasising the trade deficit in an expanded section on economic ties, while dropping talk of working with allies and assistance to China on cultural and environmental issues.

The U.S. State Department has revised its China-focused webpage to emphasize trade, business restrictions, and the challenges faced by U.S. companies operating in China. The updated page, titled "Doing Business in China: Risks and Opportunities," highlights the need for U.S. firms to be aware of China's regulatory environment, intellectual property rights issues, and the broader geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and China. It also addresses the impact of China's national security laws on foreign businesses, the importance of due diligence, and provides resources for companies to navigate these complexities. This revision comes amidst ongoing trade disputes and as part of broader U.S. efforts to inform and protect American business interests in China.
