Source: Global Times

The US embassy in Beijing confirmed that US Secretary of Commerce Gary Locke and US Trade Representative Ron Kirk sent a joint letter Wednesday to their counterparts in China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) and Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) urging China to revoke the rule.
