TOKYO -- John Roos, the former American ambassador to Japan, said the trade war is preventing U.S. companies from accepting Chinese investments and is impeding talented Chinese who might otherwise help Silicon Valley remain on the cutting edge of high technology.
"There have been different types of impact," Roos said in an interview with Nikkei regarding the trade war. "There has been a significant decrease in capital flow from China ... because of the uncertainty of accepting that capital."
