Which of the following best describes the relationship between the united states and china? a)both are dependent equally on each other for continued economic success. b)both are dependent on japan after losses experienced during the economic downturn. c)china wields more power because it holds so much u. s. debt. d)the u. s. wields more power because it buys so many of china's manufactured goods.

The answer is; A

The US imports more from China than China imports from the US hence any trade war would hurt Chinese exports and reduce its foreign exchange earner.  On the other hand, China owes the U.S $1.7 trillion in sovereign debt hence China wield leverage over the US in that if China opts to reduce the holdings, then the US economy would slow.

The statement that best describes the "relationship" between the "United States and China" is that "both are dependent equally on each other for continued economic success".
