Security Risks at US Ports and China's Influence
This chapter explores the security risks associated with Chinese-made cranes at US ports, leading to the Biden administration's decision to replace them with American-made cranes. It delves into concerns about potential disruptions in supply chains and surveillance capabilities, as well as the implications of allowing Chinese companies access to critical US infrastructure. The chapter also discusses the evolution of US-China trade relations, policy shifts during different administrations, and the focus on replacing Chinese technology with domestic alternatives.
