Title 5 Essential Lessons from China Navigating the Restoration of the 'Phase 1' Trade Deal

As nations strive to revitalize international trade agreements, it's essential to learn from the experiences of others. In this case, China's proposal for restoring the Phase 1 trade deal with the US offers valuable insights into effective negotiation strategies. Here are five key takeaways that can be applied when proposing the restoration of this critical agreement

Lesson 1 Maintain a Stable Currency
One of the most critical components of any trade proposal is maintaining a stable currency. By committing not to devalue its yuan, China demonstrates its commitment to fairness and transparency, building trust with its trading partner. Similarly, it's crucial for nations proposing a trade deal to maintain a stable currency, ensuring that both parties have a level playing field.

Lesson 2 Offer Investments as a Gesture of Goodwill
China's proposal includes offers of increased investments in the US, serving as a gesture of goodwill and demonstrating its willingness to collaborate. When proposing a trade deal, offering investments or partnerships in your own industry can be an effective way to show that you're committed to mutual growth and willing to work together.

Lesson 3 Address Illicit Goods and Activities
As part of its proposal, China has committed to reducing exports of fentanyl precursors, addressing concerns about illicit goods that may harm the interests of its trading partner. When proposing a trade deal, it's essential to address any concerns about illegal activities or goods that may be harming the other party's interests. This demonstrates your commitment to resolving issues and working together.

Lesson 4 Treat Key Issues as 'Commercial Matters'
In its proposal, China has treated key issues like TikTok largely as commercial matters, allowing investors to negotiate a deal with interested bidders in the US. When proposing a trade deal, it's essential to treat key issues like this as commercial matters that can be resolved through negotiations and compromises.

Lesson 5 Demonstrate a Willingness to Negotiate
China's proposal is notable for its willingness to negotiate and find common ground with the US. When proposing a trade deal, it's crucial to demonstrate your commitment to finding solutions that work for both parties. This involves being open-minded, flexible, and willing to make concessions.

By applying these essential lessons from China, you can create a strong foundation for proposing the restoration of the Phase 1 trade deal with the US. By maintaining a stable currency, offering investments as a gesture of goodwill, addressing illicit goods and activities, treating key issues as commercial matters, and demonstrating a willingness to negotiate, you can build trust and foster a collaborative environment that benefits both parties.
