Biden’s pick for top U.S. trade official will continue tough line on China - ex-Trump official

CNBC reports that according to former Trump trade negotiator Clete Willems, U.S. President-elect Joe Biden’s pick for his incoming administration’s top trade official will likely carry on a tough line against China.

Biden last week named Katherine Tai, a trade lawyer, as his choice for the U.S. trade representative.

“Katherine Tai is an excellent choice for USTR and the right person for the moment,” Willems told CNBC.   

Tai played a key role as chief trade counsel on the House Ways and Means Committee in pushing for stronger labor and environmental provisions in the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA).

Despite her affiliation with the Democrats, Tai is receiving “strong bipartisan support,” said Willems. He pointed out that Republican Sen. Rob Portman had endorsed Tai’s nomination.
