: Yellen to give speech on U.S. economic policy toward China

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is scheduled to give a Thursday speech about the U.S.’s economic relationship with China, the Treasury Department said Tuesday. The secretary will detail the Biden administration’s “principal objectives” in its relations with China, the Treasury said, including a level playing field for U.S. workers and businesses. Her speech comes as the U.S. and its allies are reportedly grappling with how to pare economic relationships with China, while preserving broader trade and investment flows.
