Three Georges Dam

izing the USAEP,the Clinton administration would have signaled tothe Chinese leadership that the Ex-Im Bank rulingwas guided by a genuine interest in the sustainable development of China, rather than by domestic political considerations. To date, China has not been offered participationin the USAEP, a situation that should be rectifiedimmediately, so as to not undermine United States credibility in the international arena. We recommend that in the future the U.S.government exercise swifter diplomatic actionwhen it recognizes that new export rules mayantagonize trading partners, particularly if strainedU.S. relations with the concerned countries mayundermine American security, commercial, orother interests. Conclusion In the case of the Three Gorges project specialinterest groups played a major role in influencingU.S. foreign policy. Despite the potential for short-sighted responses to case-specificconditions, the decision was appropriate also inview of the fact that it led to a significant advancein domestic politics. Moreover, we believe thedecision could be viewed as a starting point forestablishing a core foreign policy regarding the environment. Having such a core policy will add consistency to U.S. foreign relations, prevent the government from becoming hypnotized by each individual issue, and ultimately enable the government to engage constructively in the sustainable development of China and other developing countries.
