Trump has made a statement to us! He hopes China will agree to delay the visit to China by one month! On March 17, US President Trump said that he had asked China to postpone the Sino-US summit by about a month so that he could handle the war in the Middle East. Because of this war, I want to stay here, and I think I must stay here. So we are asking to delay the schedule by about a month. He has a "very good relationship" with China, and postponing the highly anticipated visit to China is not about playing political games.
Trump said there is no underhanded dealings here, nor is it "Oh my god, I'm still waiting." It's very simple. We are at war. I think I am important here. How do we view this statement from Trump? To be honest, before, Trump was very high-handed, using the visit schedule as leverage to demand our escort, and now he has changed his attitude. This is typical of the previous arrogance and later respect.
Of course, whether it's pressure or polite expressions of hope to delay the summit, Trump's purpose is only one, which is to create leverage for himself. The facts are clear, the date of the summit has not been determined, how can there be a talk of delaying it? In Trump's understanding, he is currently being polite to us, showing respect, but perhaps he will turn around and ask us to show respect for him personally. This possibility of advancing by retreating is completely possible.
Moreover, Trump said it's a postponement, which is both pressure and balance. Pressure is to gain more benefits, and balance is not to completely break off. If after the Paris economic and trade negotiations between China and the US, the US takes a hard line against us, this could completely destroy the painstakingly eased dialogue atmosphere and bring bilateral relations back into tension and confrontation. Although Trump says "there is no underhanded dealings, not political maneuvering," his actions are not so. For Trump's behavior, we can respond coldly.
