China has managed to become a great country but not always through noble means. It has stolen intellectual property.

It would be stupid and malpractice if we just sort of set up a China trust thing.

The People's Republic of China is the world's leading greenhouse gas emitter, and is responsible for almost 30 percent of global emissions.

I think, Chairman, we heard from my side and your side that China is going to be paramount in the success of your negotiations.

China has got to be part of the solution, not part of the problem.

I just do not see how we can truly make an impact if China isn't held to the same standards as the United States.

How do we trust the Chinese Communist Party to do anything they say they are going to do with their increased coal power capacity and everything else that they are doing, and their violations of human rights in the world?

Isn't it fair to say that if what we want to do is enable developing nations, including those in Africa, to reduce their carbon footprint as they grow their economy, we are going to have to be the country that delivers that type of infrastructure, because China certainly is not doing that today?

As you know, under President Xi Jinping, human rights abuse throughout China have significantly worsened, including the pervasive use of torture, religious persecution, human trafficking, and genocide against Muslim Uyghurs.

China produces more emissions than all the rest of the OECD countries put together.

Well, let's talk about that. You, the Vice President earlier referred to, as part of what he thinks is an accomplishment, the President's trade war with China. You lost that trade war. You lost it.

Encourage the Chinese government to respect the right of Tibetans to travel domestically as well as internationally...

We must hold China accountable for its human rights abuses against the Uyghurs.

Urge the Chinese government to recognize the role of restrictive Party policies and government measures...

The United States welcomes the commitments China has made on economic reform.

The United States and China support a strong, quota-based and adequately resourced IMF at the center of the global financial safety net.

We want China to be strong, and we want it to be prosperous.

There's no reason why we should sit here and watch the best highways and the newest airports being built in China.
