The document discusses the exchange rate between the US dollar and Chinese yuan. It presents the argument that China should not be forced to change its exchange rate too quickly for several reasons:
1) A rapid change would hurt China's economy and cause unemployment.
2) It could also damage the US economy since import prices would not significantly change and other countries could fill China's void, bringing new problems.
3) The best approach is a sustainable and slow rise in the yuan's value to avoid severe problems and allow both countries time to adjust their economies.
