up genetically
engineered seeds from an Iowa corn field and planned to steal
and send them back to China, so they could be reverse
engineered," Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue begins a
USA Today op-ed this week. "Those seeds, the
result of years of research and millions of dollars of American
investment, now stand as one of countless pieces of evidence in
the case against China."
China
accounts for 87 percent of counterfeit goods seized
coming into the United States, and its intellectual property
theft costs American innovators billions of dollars per year. A
U.S. Trade Representative investigation identified several
aggressive technology policies from China that put an
incredible 44 million American jobs at risk.
President
Trump has taken long overdue action to address China's
unfair trade practices. Regrettably, China chose to retaliate,
raising tariffs on $50 billion of U.S. exports. "China
apparently has no intention of changing its unfair practices,"
President Trump said in a June 18 statement. "China might
underestimate the strength and resolve of American farmers, but
the president does not," Secretary Perdue writes.
The road
ahead in the Middle East
His
Majesty King Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein of Jordan
visited the White House yesterday, meeting with President Trump
and thanking him for America's support in the Middle East. "If
the rest of the world just took a little bit of your humility
and your grace to help us, we'd be in a lot better position,"
King Abdullah II said.
"You
have done an incredible job on the refugees and the
camps and taking care of people," President Trump told the
King. "The job you do on a humanitarian basis is
fantastic."
The
Middle East has seen great progress since the United
States withdrew from the flawed Iran nuclear deal, President
Trump said. Yesterday's meeting came about a week after Senior
Advisor Jared Kushner and Special Representative for
International Negotiations Jason Greenblatt met with King
Abdullah II in Jordan, part of a series of meetings the U.S.
officials held across the Middle East last week. Their
conversations focused largely on facilitating peace between the
Israelis and Palestinians.
