This analysis explores the Chinese foreign and trade policy challenges and their implications for the US foreign policy. The author identifies several factors which intensified the debate over the renewal of the most-favored-nation trading status. Concerns over the treatment of Hong Kong following its transfer to the Chinese sovereignty, the growing bilateral trade deficit with China, the alleged Chinese involvement in illegal contributions to U.S. political campaigns, and the modernization of the Chinese military have led to one of the most contentious discussions of China policy since 1989.
