华盛顿,3月5日(路透社) – 一位国会中国问题委员会主席警告财政部长斯科特·贝森特,恢复中国工业企业的市场准入将削弱美国总统唐纳德·特朗普重建美国制造业的努力,与此同时特朗普正准备访问北京进行贸易谈判。
近年来,随着美国官员谈论”降低经济风险”的必要性,中国对美直接投资大幅下降,尽管一些媒体报道称双方正在寻找恢复互惠投资的途径。

众议院中国问题特别委员会主席、共和党人约翰·穆伦纳在致贝森特的信函中(路透社已阅)表示,中国企业通过政府支持长期处于亏损运营状态,这使美国竞争对手被排挤。
穆伦纳在3月4日的信函中称,邀请中国企业扩大对美投资将缓解中国经济压力,同时损害政府保护国家安全和重建美国工业实力的努力。
“北京试图以美国纳税人的利益为代价补贴其失灵的经济模式,并通过向我国输出其国家补贴的工业过剩产能,来利用其大规模知识产权盗窃所获得的不义之财。”穆伦纳指出。
这封信发出之际,特朗普与中国国家主席习近平备受期待的会晤即将于3月31日至4月2日举行。特朗普政府希望两国领导人能在持续的工业和技术竞争中同意延长微妙的关税休战。
美国总统通过颇具争议的关税政策,将重振美国制造业作为其经济议程的重点,包括努力从伙伴和盟友那里争取关键行业的投资承诺,如半导体制造和造船业。
但特朗普在2025年2月签署行政命令,特别指出中国投资存在”瞄准美国科技核心产业”的风险。
美国贸易代表办公室本周在政策文件中表示,将寻求”建设性的外国投资”,既能扩大美国工业基础,又不危及美国国家安全。
美国贸易代表办公室在2026年贸易政策议程中(未直接点名中国)承诺,将利用美国外国投资委员会(CFIUS)防范国家安全威胁,并促进”生产性、基于市场的投资”。
中国驻华盛顿大使馆和财政部未立即回应双方是否正在讨论增加互惠投资计划的置评请求。
穆伦纳特别警告不要允许中国企业在汽车和锂离子电池行业进一步渗透。这位密歇根州议员多次审查福特汽车(F.N)与中国电池巨头宁德时代(300750.SZ)的合作关系,而五角大楼称宁德时代与中国军方有关联。
贝森特和中国副总理、最高贸易谈判代表何立峰预计将于3月中旬会面,为两国领导人峰会做准备。

WASHINGTON, March 5 (Reuters) – Reviving market access to Chinese industrial firms would undercut U.S. President Donald Trump’s efforts to rebuild American manufacturing, the head of a congressional committee on China warned Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, as Trump prepares to visit Beijing for trade talks.
Chinese foreign direct investment into the U.S. has fallen dramatically in recent years as U.S. officials talk about the need to “de-risk” the United States’ economy, though some media reports have suggested the two sides are looking at ways to revive reciprocal investment.

John Moolenaar, the Republican chair of the House of Representatives’ select committee on China, told Bessent in a letter seen by Reuters that Chinese companies routinely benefit from government support allowing them to operate at a loss and displace U.S. competitors.
Inviting them to expand investment in the U.S. would provide relief to China’s strained economy and undermine the administration’s efforts to safeguard national security and rebuild American industrial strength, Moolenaar told Bessent in the letter dated March 4.
“Beijing seeks to subsidize its broken economic model on the back of the American taxpayer and capitalize on the ill-gotten gains of its mass intellectual property theft by exporting its state-subsidized industrial overcapacity to our shores,” Moolenaar said.
The letter comes ahead of a highly anticipated meeting between Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping, expected March 31 to April 2. The Trump administration hopes the leaders can agree to extend a delicate tariff truce amid an ongoing industrial and technological rivalry.
The U.S. president, using controversial tariffs, has made reviving American manufacturing a focus of his economic agenda, including efforts to win investment commitments from partners and allies in key industries, such as semiconductor fabrication and shipbuilding.
But Trump signed an executive order in February 2025 singling out the risks of Chinese investment for “targeting the crown jewels” of American technology.
The U.S. Trade Representative’s office said this week in a policy document that it would seek “constructive foreign investment” that grows the U.S. industrial base but does not imperil U.S. national security.
Without naming China directly, USTR’s 2026 Trade Policy Agenda pledged to use the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) to guard against national security threats and promote “productive, market-based investment.”
China’s embassy in Washington and the Treasury Department did not respond immediately to requests for comment on whether the two sides were discussing any plans to increase reciprocal investment.
Moolenaar specifically warned against allowing greater inroads to Chinese firms in the auto and lithium-ion battery industries. The Michigan lawmaker has repeatedly scrutinized Ford’s (F.N) partnership with Chinese battery giant CATL (300750.SZ), a company the Pentagon says is linked to China’s military.
Bessent and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng, the top Chinese trade negotiator, are expected to meet in mid-March to plan for the leaders’ summit.
