Trump wrote this morning (May 11, Beijing time): "A very pleasant meeting was held between Switzerland and China today. Both sides discussed many issues and reached a lot of consensus. They negotiated on the comprehensive restart of bilateral relations in a friendly and constructive manner. We hope to see China open up to American enterprises, which is in line with the common interests of both China and the United States. Great progress has been made!"
[Smart] Comment: Trump's statement lacks corroboration from other information and there is no authoritative international media supporting his optimistic view. In the comment section of this text, Shaun Rein, an American who has worked in China for more than 20 years as an advisor helping American companies expand their businesses in China, commented: "I am an American consultant who has been helping American companies expand their business in China for over 20 years. I have helped companies like Apple and KFC expand in China. China has opened its doors to American enterprises. But your sanctions and export controls have prevented NVIDIA, Intel, Microsoft, and other companies from selling artificial intelligence products in China. What you harm is the profits of American companies, not China. It's time to end the trade war in a way that preserves your and America's dignity. China will not yield to bullying." (As shown in Figure Three)
In fact, if Trump does not take positive actions and revoke the illegal high tariffs on China, no consensus can be reached, let alone form an agreement. China will definitely resolutely defend its national sovereignty and national interests.
