Chuck Schumer met with officials in Shanghai on the first leg of a visit to the country.
SHANGHAI: US Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer accused Chinese firms of “fuelling” a drug addiction crisis in the US, as he met with officials in Shanghai on the first leg of a visit to the country.
Beijing has said it opposes the sanctions, and insisted the opioid problem is “rooted in” the US and not its responsibility.“Many of our constituents feel that in instances China does not treat American companies fairly when we talk to our American companies, they bring this up including many of them that are here,” he told Chen.
Asked about his expectations for the visit, Schumer said he was hoping for “very productive discussions”. US media reported the group will seek to raise issues ranging from the climate for US businesses in China to human rights. Secretary of state Antony Blinken, treasury secretary Janet Yellen and commerce secretary Gina Raimondo, as well as climate envoy John Kerry, have all visited China this year.
