Max Baucus: “I just think, inexcusable.”

I did not ever hear anybody in China advocate the Americans should stick with agreements that you have to transfer technology.

I'm saying China would not stand idly by. They would not just sit there and watch whatever may or may not unfold in North Korea should U.S. attempt preemptive strike.

The most important geopolitical matter that crossed my desk during the 3 years I was there was TPP, and we blew it.

In fact, the opposite was just the case. They kept complaining to us about our restrictions of technology transfer to China.
