The trade war, as it stands now, requires a clear winner and loser between China and the US! From our perspective, in fact, on the issue of China, the US has already challenged us. The US announcing its return to the Indo-Pacific strategy during the Obama era was the opening move for their challenge against us. And during Trump's administration and the Biden government, containing China has become the most important goal for the US government.
In the past, although we have countered the US's containment, overall, we still hoped to stabilize the relationship between China and the US. But when Trump launched a comprehensive tariff war against us, we responded with equal measures, never giving an inch, and even made the removal of all unreasonable tariffs by the US a precondition. This shows that our attitude towards the US has completely changed.
We are very clear in our hearts that the US has become an obstacle on the path of China's development. For this obstacle, we have no room for compromise; we can only defeat it. Of course, the US is wary of us. Our economy is growing larger, our military strength is becoming stronger, and our political influence is increasing. The US does not allow these changes to happen, so what choices do we have? We must face the challenges head-on.
Now, our attitude is to formally respond to the US's challenge. If the US withdraws all the unreasonable tariffs they have imposed, it will be a major setback for them. From then on, we will officially take over from the US as the strongest opponent in globalization and begin to dominate and formulate global economic and trade rules. The US is the whetstone for our national rejuvenation, and we must overcome every obstacle they place in our way. Therefore, this trade war will certainly determine the victor and loser. If the US wants to escalate the situation, let's see who will end up toppling whose table.
