Breaking News: U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessenet told financial media "Consumer News and Business Channel" (CNBC) on Monday that the meeting between President Trump and Chinese officials scheduled for later this month may be postponed due to logistical issues arising from the Iran war. Although Bessenet said the meeting could be postponed, he denied that the delay was due to Trump's remarks to the Financial Times the day before. In his remarks, Trump said he might postpone the meeting with China if it refuses to help open the Strait of Hormuz.
Comment: No matter how external situations fluctuate or how the U.S. uses its own problems as a bargaining chip, China has always maintained a neutral, objective, and responsible attitude, not being led by others or dragged into conflicts created by others. The foundation of Sino-U.S. relations should never be tied to regional disputes, let alone become a tool for blackmail, whether Trump comes or not. Staying steady in our own rhythm and upholding principles is the most reliable and enduring response.
