WASHINGTON—China is trying every means—including coercion—to gain bargaining leverage in the upcoming talks with the United States, according to the House China committee chair.

“They are putting every bit of leverage on the table so that in a negotiation, they can, in some way, relent in a small way and still keep their negotiated gains,” Rep. John Moolenaar (R-Mich.), who leads the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party, told The Epoch Times on EpochTV’s “American Thought Leaders” show.
