The U.S. and China are making progress toward implementing the phase one trade deal struck earlier this year, with Beijing now accepting shipments from more U.S. plants than ever before.

The announcement from U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer comes amid flaring tensions after the U.S. criticized Beijing's initial handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, which was first identified in Wuhan, China, and has since infected nearly 4.9 million people worldwide.

Even with the recent tensions between the two sides, however, Beijing has forged ahead with updating its list of U.S. facilities eligible to ship their goods to China. The list now includes 499 beef, 457 pork, 470 poultry, 397 seafood, 253 dairy and nine infant-formula facilities, according to the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative.

“Even with the recent tensions between the two sides, however, Beijing has forged ahead....”

That’s a crock. They screwed up by getting caught distributing this bio weapon and are now trying to make amends to get back on the food services (US) good side. And they are trying to get it behind everyone with help from Pelosi, Biden, Kerry, and the whole liberal media force. The three families are hip deep in contracts with China and receiving good money from them. The only name not on the list (yet), is Clinton as they were a major funds source for his two elections and he gave them the MRV tracking program as a payoff for it and got himself, Noral, and Hughes fined multi thousand dollars. Day ain’t over.
