US seeks level playing field against China

WASHINGTON - The U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says, the United States is seeking to level the playing field with China after decades of unfair trade practices.

He made the remarks after meeting his Dutch counterpart, Foreign Minister Stef Blok, on the sidelines of a U.S.-Dutch entrepreneurship conference in the Netherlands.

They also discussed security threats relating to new 5G telecommunications networks.

Pompeo said the U.S. President Donald Trump wants to ensure that Chinese and U.S. companies are doing business on equal terms.
