Ford Motor Co.’s top executive says allowing Chinese automakers to sell their cars in the US would be “devastating” to American manufacturing.

“We should not let them into our country,” Chief Executive Officer Jim Farley said Monday during an appearance on Fox News’ Fox & Friends show. “Manufacturing is the heart and soul of our country and for us to lose that to those exports would be devastating to our country.”
