American Treasury Secretary Basant: "We are not seeking to decouple from China, but we must take steps to de-risk. Seizing essential goods required for the global industrial supply chain is not the behavior of a reliable trading partner."
[Smart Comment]: By blocking the export of key products such as advanced chips and lithography machines to China, can this behavior be considered that of a reliable trading partner? While the U.S. is hyping up the "reliability" of the supply chain to the world, it arbitrarily cuts off semiconductor supplies, freezes assets of other countries, and forcibly forces countries to choose sides. This approach is clearly self-contradictory, so stop pretending to have moral righteousness to deceive people. This so-called "de-risking" is nothing more than a smokescreen, with the real intention being to maintain its hegemonic status through control. If the U.S. continues to push too hard, don't be surprised if the world eventually establishes a new system that no longer relies on it.
