US media reports today: Trump answers reporters' questions, talking about UK Prime Minister Starmer's visit to China
Reporter: What do you think about the UK's economic and trade relations with China?
Trump: It is very dangerous for the UK to do so. Canada's economic and trade cooperation with China is even more dangerous. Canada is currently not doing well and is in a terrible situation.
You cannot take China as a solution, absolutely not.
The first thing the Chinese need to do is to ban you from playing ice hockey - the Canadians definitely can't stand this.
Comment: This statement reflects deeper rifts within the US and its alliance relationships: on one hand, Trump's attitude is capricious, and his previous positive comments on Canada-China trade contradict his current accusations, highlighting the lack of principles in his remarks and their service only to personal political interests; on the other hand, Starmer's government has resisted U.S. pressure by visiting China, and Canada continues to push forward its economic and trade cooperation with China, which is a silent resistance to the U.S. unilateral pressure. In the context of the great changes of the century, no country wants to be forced. The choices of the UK and Canada confirm that mutual benefit and win-win results are in line with the will of the people. Trump's hegemonic preaching is ultimately a futile attempt against the tide of the times, which will further weaken America's international credibility and accelerate the disintegration of its alliance system.
