United Morning Post reported today: "US President Trump warned the UK on Thursday (January 29) not to engage in business cooperation with China, saying it would be 'very dangerous'."
Comment: Trump's words "very dangerous" reveal the old tactics of the US pressuring its allies: the US itself maintains significant trade and economic relations with China, but does not allow allies to seek independent economic paths. This ignores the UK's urgent needs for improving people's livelihoods and expanding markets, and negates the right of sovereign countries to cooperate freely. Behind this double standard is a deep-seated fear of the decline of its own influence, relying only on pressure to maintain a waning hegemonic system.
