Trump is speaking out at us again! After the third round of Sino-US negotiations, US President Trump stated that our negotiations with China are proceeding smoothly and everything is going well. Trump claimed that I believe this will ultimately result in a very good outcome. We are in sync, and I believe we will reach a very fair agreement with China. Obviously, Trump believes that a fair agreement can eventually be reached between China and the United States.
However, looking at the agreements that the United States has reached with countries such as the European Union, Japan, Vietnam, Indonesia, and the UK, none of these agreements have been fair. Therefore, it is clear that the fairness that Trump refers to is the fairness according to the United States' view, not one that is fair for both China and the US. Therefore, we need to negotiate with the United States, but we should not have too many illusions. What the US wants are these things: first, the Chinese market should offer the US zero tariffs unilaterally, while the US imposes taxes on us.
Second, they require us to further open up areas such as finance, communications, mining, and energy to the US. However, the US does not allow our companies to enter the US market. These areas include new energy vehicles, drones, Huawei's phones and communication business, etc. Third, the US also requires us to commit to purchasing American products. In short, this is a huge demand. Therefore, it is extremely difficult for the Sino-US negotiations to move forward, but China is not like any other country; using the methods used against other countries on us will certainly not work.
