"Both nations have an obligation to responsibly manage this relationship: to find a way to live together and share in global prosperity," she added.

Concluding the four-day trip to China, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen stated, on Friday, that the decoupling of the US and Chinese economies would be "virtually impossible" as it would result in the destabilization of the global markets.

The Treasury Secretary underscored, during a session with representatives of US businesses hosted by the American Chamber of Commerce in Beijing, that the US has not sought a "wholesale separation of our economies," and explained that "we [US] seek to diversify, not to decouple."

Yellen then added, that "a decoupling of the world's two largest economies would be destabilizing for the global economy," adding that "it would be virtually impossible to undertake."

Significantly, the Treasury Secretary also stressed, during the same session, that Washington was "concerned" about the curbs and that the US was still evaluating the impact of these actions, but they remind us of the importance of building resilient and diversified supply chains."
