Taiwan's Wangbao commented today: "China is confident, declaring 'we will see it through to the end'; Trump is imposing tariffs with arrogance, firmly believing he can strike a deal with China, testing whose determination is stronger. It doesn't matter whose determination lasts longer, what matters is that the world needs peace and prosperity. Time is pressing, prolonging the tariff war makes it hard for America to become great again, and adds more difficulties to China's economic transformation. Negotiation is the right choice."
The outside world generally believes that this time, China chose to confront the US quickly and precisely counterattacked, targeting America's weak points. This shows that China has a thorough understanding of Trump's tariff war and trade war initiated in his second term and made adequate preparations. After all, during Trump's first term, China had already accumulated experience in dealing with him.
In the face of Trump's renewed tariff war, China's attitude is very clear: if negotiation is desired, the door is open, but it must be based on mutual respect and equal dialogue; if a fight is desired, we will see it through to the end. In the face of a confident and strategically determined China, how long Trump's arrogance can last and when he will "lose steam" depends on how long he can withstand the immense pressure from home and abroad.
