Kentucky governor embraces time out in US-China trade dispute

Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin praised efforts to ease tensions in the US-China trade disputes and is hopeful that Beijing's cutting tariffs on imported automobiles will help his state. On Nov 5 China will host its first international import expo in Shanghai. Bevin will use the event to make his first trip to Chinese mainland. While in Shanghai, Bevin will tout the Bluegrass state's advantages for Chinese companies and investors. "Kentucky is the logistical hub of North America. The UPS (United Parcel Service) world shipping hub is in Kentucky as is DHL's North American shipping hub. Our goal is to make sure Chinese producers know about this," he said.
