Can Janet Yellen help fix US-China relations?

World Business Report

Available for over a year

US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has arrived in China as part of high-stakes attempts to rebuild bridges between the world's two biggest economies. It is the second visit to Beijing by a senior Washington official in as many months and comes after the countries' relationship nose-dived this year. The visit comes just days after Beijing said it would curb exports of two key materials used to make computer chips.
