Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson will raise US concerns about the pace of China’s currency appreciation and Tibet unrest at bilateral economic talks next week in Beijing, a senior US official said Friday.
China’s yuan currency has increasingly appreciated in the past two years and that pace “should continue,” said Alan Holmer, special envoy for China and the US-China Strategic Economic Dialogue.
The yuan, or renminbi, had gained “a little over 18 percent” since July 2005, he said.
