on China, which might be interesting. But I see nothing wrong in the particular statement posted.
It seems that in addition to tariffs, those other issues should all be taken into account when negotiating trade agreements.
Hopefully he does a good job. For now, I will trust Trump's judgment of his job performance.
From Wikipedia's article on Navarro:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Navarro
In The Coming China Wars, a book published by Financial Times in 2006, Navarro examined China as an emerging world power confronting challenges at home and abroad as it struggles to exert itself in the global market. He discussed how China's role in international commerce created conflicts with nations worldwide over energy, natural resources, the environment, intellectual property, and other issues. A review in Publishers Weekly described the book as "comprehensive" and "contemporary" and concludes that it "will teach readers to understand the dragon, just not how to vanquish it".[25]
Appearing at the University of Michigan in 2012, Navarro discusses his work, Death by China, arguing China cheats in the world trade system.
In Death by China, published in 2011, Navarro and co-author Greg Autry argued that China violates fair trade by "illegal export subsidies and currency manipulation, effectively flooding the U.S. markets" and unfairly making it "virtually impossible" for American companies to compete.[26] It is a critique of "global capitalism", including foreign labor practices and environmental protection.[27] Currency manipulation and subsidies are stated as reasons that "American companies cannot compete because they're not competing with Chinese companies, they're competing with the Chinese government."[28] The Economist wrote that "the core allegations Mr. Navarro makes against China are not all that controversial. He accuses China of keeping its currency cheap" and "He deplores China's practice of forcing American firms to hand over intellectual property as a condition of access to its market. He claims that Chinese firms pollute the environment more freely and employ workers in far worse conditions than American rules allow."[21] In 2012, Navarro directed and produced Death by China, a documentary film based on his book.[29] The film, described as "fervently anti-China",[30] was narrated by Martin Sheen.
