BANNOCKBURN, IL – IPC welcomes today’s signing of phase one of the US-China trade deal.

Chris Mitchell, IPC vice president of global government relations, released a statement on behalf of the electronics manufacturing industry:

“The electronics manufacturing industry welcomes the US-China phase one trade deal being signed today in Washington and the pathway it offers to resolution of broader issues. The deal leaves many issues unaddressed, including cybersecurity, structural economic reforms, and the high level of tariffs that are still in place on many products traded in our industry. As documented in a recent IPC study, many IPC members are feeling the pain of higher costs, supply-chain disruptions, administrative hassles, and reduced access to the Chinese market as a result of the US-China trade conflict.”
