“This bilateral agreement represents a necessary and welcome step towards addressing China's unfair trade practices and highly disruptive levels of textile trade.”
“We encourage the U.S. to move forward in implementing the cases with final decisions pending by close of business today (Wednesday). The proper use of the safeguard is necessary to offset China's unfair trade practices that have caused substantial job loss in the U.S. textile sector.”
“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.”
“The reason that the Chinese have dropped their prices so much is that they are engaged in predatory activity in an attempt to wipe out all other competition.”
