US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer defended s America's blunt, tariff-based trade policy, arguing that the administration's uncompromising stance toward China has been effective and overdue, reports Hong Kong's South China Morning Post.
Speaking at an event sponsored by London-based Chatham House, Mr Lighthizer said: "I don't know what the end goal is. Right now we need to stop an aggressive force."
"We have to figure out new rules - what phase one is, is an attempt to find those kinds of rules - and these are setting aside all the aggression in India and in Hong Kong," he said.
