The four-day visit — the first by a US commerce chief in seven years — may be the most consequential yet by a Biden administration official because Raimondo’s purview over curbing technology shipments as well as promoting trade puts her at the center of tangible economic issues in US-China relations.
Before departing, Raimondo cited opportunities for commercial partnerships in areas such as travel and tourism, while signaling to her hosts that the US won’t compromise on national security — a message conveyed by Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen on earlier visits.
Raimondo is expected to announce working groups on export controls and US-Chinese commercial relations, people familiar with the planning have said. The working-group plans drew a rebuke from Republicans in Congress, who warned Raimondo against allowing China to weigh in on US export policy. Raimondo told reporters she’ll communicate on national security but won’t negotiate.
