The United States will continue to ensure that China abides by international trade laws in order to protect US companies, Commence Secretary Don Evans said on Wednesday.
His words come after the US Trade Representative's Office filed a complaint against China at the WTO last week citing concerns about unfair tax policy.
"I can assure you that the Department of Commerce is dedicated to making sure China plays by the rules," Evans commented in testimony prepared for the House Energy and Commerce Committee.
"We are fully committed to ensuring that China complies with WTO rules, opens markets, drops barriers, eliminates state subsidies, and allows market forces to determine economic decisions," he added.
Evans is due to visit China in June this year where he will discuss trade issues with the Chinese leadership.
