These filings show the Chinese that if you don't make progress, we are going to exercise our rights. We are going to moderate trade.

It is long past time for US policymakers to recognize that China is a superpower in terms of international trade.

Our understanding is that there was absolutely no progress. A mutual agreement does not appear to be on the cards in the near future.

This bilateral agreement represents a necessary and welcome step towards addressing China's unfair trade practices and highly disruptive levels of textile trade.

We maintain our long-standing position that while the textile industry wants a comprehensive agreement, any agreement must be in the industry's best interest. No deal is better than a bad deal.

If China isn't moving, then the right thing to do is go home.
