Regarding Sino-US relations, the correct statement is

The United States is China's largest trading partner, China's largest export market and China's sixth largest source of imports.

As one of the largest developing countries in the world, China and the United States are rich in labor resources, with obvious cost advantages, broad market and unlimited development potential; The other is the largest developed country with the strongest economic and technological strength in the world.

Sino-US relations directly affect the development of the world economy. As far as the current Sino-US relations are concerned, they are in the honeymoon period, but problems and conflicts also exist. Because there are no eternal friends and enemies between countries, only eternal interests. As far as the present situation of China and the United States is concerned, there are still problems in ideology, political influence and economic and trade friction.

In the development of modern countries, economy is a powerful material condition of a country, the most core, realistic and practical national interest, which directly determines the status and influence of the country. Therefore, economy and trade are a barometer of the relationship between countries.

China and the United States are at different stages of economic development. With the deepening of economic globalization, the economic relations between the two countries have strong mutual benefit and complementarity. At the same time, there are all kinds of frictions in the competition. Sino-US economic and trade frictions are mainly manifested in the following three aspects: trade balance, RMB exchange rate and intellectual property protection.

The widening trade deficit between China and the United States is the decisive factor for the turmoil in Sino-US relations. In 2005, China exported US$ 654.38+062.9 billion and imported US$ 48.73 billion, with a surplus of US$ 654.38+065.438+047.7 billion.

According to US statistics, the US trade deficit with China surged by 24.5% in 2005, reaching $201600 million. The reason why there is such a big trade gap between China and the United States is related to the statistical methods adopted by both sides. On the other hand, it is related to the politicization of American economic issues.

The statistical differences between China and the United States are mainly due to the particularity of Sino-US trade and the different statistical methods. 60% of China's exports to the United States and 30% of its imports from the United States are re-exported through third parties, mainly Hongkong.
