China on Tuesday called on the US to treat Chinese investors fairly and
not use national security censorship to curb investment cooperation
between companies of the two countries.
China's Ministry of
Commerce released a statement after US President Donald Trump on Monday
signed a review of his national security law to reinforce the regulatory
power of the Committee on Foreign Investment in Washington, reports Efe
news.
The Ministry said that China would thoroughly assess the
content of the proposed law and closely monitor its impact on Chinese
companies.
It said companies in China and the US have the will
and great potential to deepen their investment cooperation and that both
governments must respond to this demand by providing a conducive and
stable environment for growth.
Trump green lighted the reform of
the national security law as part of the framework of signing a record
budget for defence at $716 billion for fiscal year 2019.
He
signed the budget law on Monday that the Congress had passed in early
summer during a military event in Fort Drum in New York.
