Joe Biden's advisor, Nicholas Burns, blames China for the 'theft of American intellectual property.'
He says they have 'ripped off part of the natural wealth of the US' and that President Trump used this sentiment in his 2016 campaign.
Burns was a recent guest of the Lowy Institute in Australia.
He would like to see Australia step up to help ease the anguish around China's place in the world.
