American think tank's proposal: If the whole world cuts off trade with China, it will "collapse without a fight"
We really doubt whether those so-called "elite strategists" from American think tanks have any brains.
On the 28th, the well-known American think tank "Center for Strategic and International Studies" (CSIS) published an odd article, saying that the United States' current unilateral pressure on China is not effective. If the entire world unites to cut off trade with China, it will "collapse without a fight".
Well, putting aside the dirt that was thrown at China in this odd article, CSIS indeed came up with a "good" idea, but we also want to ask a question that Western media often asks: What is the cost?
You should know that China has now become the top three trading partners of 157 countries and regions around the world; as for today's United States, it cannot even unite its allies, so how can it ask these 157 countries and regions to cut off trade with China?
Not to mention anything else, how much cost is CSIS preparing to make Trump bear to compensate for the losses after these 157 countries and regions cut off trade with China? After all, goods do not grow out of the shelves by themselves.
Additionally, Trump's high tariff policy is similar to cutting off trade with China - so, since CSIS believes this approach is so effective, why did Trump's tariff policy against China only last a few months before he surrendered?
