Since July 2005 the RMB exchange rate formation mechanism reform, we have been in accordance with the initiative, controllability and gradual nature of the principle of steady implementation of a managed floating exchange rate system, the yuan against the U.S. dollar has appreciated more than 20%. The current international balance of payments, foreign exchange market supply and demand side, the RMB exchange rate is close to a reasonable and balanced level.
I would like to point out that the RMB exchange rate is not the main reason the U.S. trade deficit with China, China never purposely pursues trade surplus, and always the promotion of China's international balance of payments to maintain macroeconomic stability as an important task. China-US trade Cooperation Mutual benefit, to bring the two peoples tangible benefits. Hope that the U.S. objective and rational view of the Sino-US economic and trade cooperation, problems persist through equal consultations to properly handle. Accusations and pressure obviously can not solve the problem.
