The tariff conflict between the US and China continues to strain the relationship between the two nations. President Donald Trump shows no desire to negotiate with Xi Jinping, as confirmed by US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer.
Refusal to Negotiate
Donald Trump has no immediate intention to engage with Xi Jinping regarding tariff issues. According to US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, no high-level talks are planned.
Tariffs and Their Consequences
The trade war has led to the enforcement of 145% tariffs on Chinese goods by the Trump administration, while China has raised tariffs on US products to 125%. These measures deepen economic divisions and raise concerns over global market stability.
China’s Strategy and the Call for Multipolarity
Xi Jinping’s diplomatic tour in Southeast Asia emphasizes the importance of multilateral trade frameworks and urges countries to strengthen cooperation. 'There are no winners in a trade war,' claims Xi, highlighting the need for stable global supply chains.
The US-China trade conflict continues to have a profound impact on geopolitical and economic relations between the two powers. Analysts suggest the implications of this dispute may have long-lasting effects on global trade.
