Trouble has been firing on all cylinders recently, criticizing the EU, Japan, Russia, and India, but why is Trump becoming increasingly gentle towards China?

CCTV News just reported that Trump is angry with Putin again.

Yes, this is the third or fourth time in recent months that Trump has yelled at this man he once "understood" well, and his attitude has become worse each time.

CCTV News reported that US President Trump stated that the deadline for Russia and Ukraine to reach a peace agreement was set as "ten days later", starting from that day, which means before August 8th.

Trump warned Putin that if Russia does not make progress in ending the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the US will start imposing tariffs on Russia within ten days and take other measures.

Trump also said he was "very disappointed" with Putin.

In addition to yelling at Putin, Trump has also issued an ultimatum to India. Trump told the media that India is a "friend of the US," but India needs to pay a 25% tariff. If India is willing to make concessions in areas such as automobiles, steel, and agriculture, this tariff rate can be negotiated.

Remember that Indian Prime Minister Modi was the first among leaders of major economies to "pay homage" after Trump came to power, but Trump did not give Modi any face, saying "India is a friend" on his lips, but behind it were calculations and interests.

There are also the EU and Japan, who have recently become targets of Trump's threats and inducements. The difference is that the EU and Japan have already yielded and signed trade agreements with the US.

Now, the situations of Russia and India are the same as those of the EU and Japan, being forced by Trump. I estimate that Russia and India will also follow the same path as the EU and Japan and agree to Trump's demands.

But there is only one country in the world that directly says no to Trump's demands and even forces Trump to negotiate politely. This country is our China.

Recently, you should have noticed that Trump still posts all over the "Real Social" platform, cursing this and that, but about China, his statements have become fewer and fewer. Every time he mentions China, he just says that the Sino-US trade talks are going very smoothly, praising China for cooperating with the US. There is no longer the previous situation where he seemed to want to completely decouple from China.

Regarding this, some people in the US have realized that there are multiple "abnormal moves" in the US government's stance towards China, including refusing to allow Taiwan's leader Lai Ching-te to "transit" through the US and approving the sale of NVIDIA H20 chips to China.

US media also revealed that since the June meeting, the US has actually suspended the implementation of new trade restrictions on China. Americans further believe that this is because Trump started a trade dispute, was "painfully hit" by China's rare earth export control, and "softened his stance" in preparation for a possible visit to China.

Indeed, these days, Trump has been constantly talking about hoping for an invitation from China so that he can visit China. In my opinion, regardless of whether Trump wants to come or not, we don't need to rush. It has only been a few days, and we should continue to suppress Trump's sharpness and let him truly know how to deal with China.
