Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley said on July 17 that she is open to designating communist China as a currency manipulator.

When asked by The Epoch Times during a press gaggle shortly before taking the stage at Christians United for Israel’s annual summit in Arlington, Virginia, why the only condition of China’s normal trade status is based on the fentanyl crisis in the United States and not the other issues, Ms. Haley said that threatening China to strip it of its normal trade relations status over perpetuating the fentanyl crisis should be more than enough for China to stop doing so and that the top goal is to prevent its facilitation of fentanyl, which is a leading cause of death among Americans.
