China and the United States have just wrapped up trade consultations in Paris at a time of global economic uncertainty. Can renewed dialogue help stabilize one of the world's most important economic relationships? And how much does the global economy depend on steady engagement between these two major powers? In this edition of The Hub, Wang Guan speaks with Liang Yan, Kremer chair professor of Economics at Willamette University and non-resident senior fellow at the Boston University Global Development Policy Center; Anthony Chan, global chief economist at Chan Economics and former chief economist at JPMorgan Chase; and Liu Baocheng, dean of the Center for International Business Ethics at the University of International Business and Economics. Together, they explore the significance of the latest China-US trade consultations in Paris, hailed as "candid, in-depth and constructive." They also discuss the state of bilateral trade, and look into what kind of China-US economic relationship would best support stability and growth in an increasingly fragmented global economy.
