The United States should adopt a Cold War strategy against China to prevent it from technologically advancing, according to a new report published by Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas), who serves as chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

The report (pdf) suggests that “the unimpeded transfer of U.S. technology to China” is the biggest factor in China’s rise to prominence, and that the nation should seek to stop China from further developing advanced technologies by prohibiting the export of critical U.S. tech.
