In a statement, Moolenaar said, “I am pleased to see President Trump’s decision to nominate former Senator David Perdue to be the United States’ next Ambassador to the People’s Republic of China. Senator Perdue will bring a clear-eyed perspective to the role and will help the United States combat the malign behavior of the Chinese Communist Party.
