Janet Yellen assured this Tuesday that the United States and Europe must respond in a "strategic and united way" to China's industrial excess capacity. The secretary of the treasury made this statement during a speech on the importance of the alliance between the United States and Europe in the city of Frankfurt, Germany.

As reported by CNBC, Yellen assured that the rise of Chinese industry puts both American and European companies at risk and that, therefore, both governments have to do something to prevent it as well as to protect the industrial development of countries with emerging markets:

For her part, Ursula Von der Leyen, president of the European Commission, assured that Europe would try to confront China's industrial excess capacity in a different way than the United States did. While U.S. opted to quadruple the price of tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, Europe may also increase tariffs but it is very unlikely that they will reach the rate imposed by the United States.
