After our countermeasures, we didn't expect German media to criticize us. The German media claimed that China is playing a "dangerous game"! On April 9th, the German media published an article claiming that China is notorious for its unwillingness to compromise. Facing Trump's continuous issuance of new tariff threats, China's "bet" is getting higher and higher, even willing to bear the risk of complete decoupling of the world's two largest economies. Perhaps China is convinced that even if it will also suffer losses, it will ultimately be able to withstand the consequences of decoupling.

The German media claimed that this trade war between the world's two largest economies is essentially a face-off. China cannot tolerate showing weakness or losing face either. Clearly, it was Trump who initiated the trade war, repeatedly extorting us with increased tariffs. Unexpectedly, the German media claimed that China is playing a "dangerous game." This argument of the German media is undoubtedly filled with bias against China.

According to the German media's view, does it mean that when facing America's aggressive stance, China should quickly submit to the US to gain its mercy? The EU is also countering America's extortion. If this is a dangerous game, doesn't the German media think that America is instigating a dangerous game? The German media claims that China's "bet" is getting higher and higher, but the problem is, for us, this is not a "gamble" at all.

We have long seen through America's actions. Essentially, America's actions are to weaken Chinese manufacturing and revitalize American manufacturing to solve its own problems. Clearly, in the face of such behavior from America, we have no room to retreat. Previously, after America raised tariffs twice by 10%, we responded very restrainedly to America. What did we get in return? We got more intensified extortion and blackmail from America.

America's trade war against us is neither a so-called face-off nor a gamble. In fact, Trump initiated the trade war, not on a whim, but as a carefully planned result. We were well prepared for this. The German media has taken sides and instead of criticizing the US, which started the trade war, they turned their矛head towards us. This is无疑巨大偏见对我们. There is a cost to the trade war, but we have no way out; we must face difficulties head-on.
