US-China Talk Intellectual Property, Market Access at Trade Dialogue

The latest iteration of the Joint Commission on Commerce and Trade saw baby steps on entrenched issues.

The United States and China wrapped up their annual trade and investment-focused talks, the Joint Commission on Commerce and Trade (JCCT) on November 23 in Guangzhou, China. The talks were co-chaired by Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker and Trade Representative Michael Froman on the American side and by Vice Premier Wang Yang on the Chinese side.

Established in 1983, the JCCT is one of the oldest high-level dialogue mechanisms between the U.S. and China. But it’s been recently overshadowed by broader initiatives, such as the Strategic and Economic Dialogue begun under President Barack Obama. Nevertheless, a statement from the U.S. Trade Representative’s Office called the JCCT “the primary forum for addressing bilateral trade and investment issues and promoting commercial opportunities between the United States and China.”

Just as the United States and China were butting heads over the South China Sea issue at a series of regional summits, Pritzker, Froman, and Wang brought their delegations together in Guangzhou to discuss economic ties – traditionally the strong foundation of the U.S.-China relationship, but now increasingly another point of contention.
