The US alleges China is engaged in an unceasing and highly successful cyber espionage campaign against the United States, its government and economic interests.

Could poor cyber relations with China also be the fault of the Americans?

For starters, in the diplomatic realm there is no other relationship on cyber issues like it. China and the European Union get along quite well on cyber issues, including joint research through OpenChina ICT. Certainly, there is less acrimony and less overt suspicion between the two sides.
