The Chinese best diplomat, Wang Yi, vowed on Friday that Beijing would firmly take revenge on the United States if escalating a trade war with multiple tariffs, reaching a heavy note despite the economic challenges of the country.
Mr. Wang comments came about the day after President Trump suspended tariffs because of the goods coming from Mexico and Canada but did not do the same for the items coming from China.
“If you decide to cooperate, you will achieve WIN-Win’s benefit and results; If it is blindly pressured, China will definitely resolutely oppose, “Chinese Foreign Minister of Foreign Affairs at the sidelines on the sidelines of the Chinese annual legislative session in Beijing.
Mr. Wang said the United States should “look within” solutions for his fental crisis, not to blame countries like China for a problem, let alone impose tariffs on them. He also accused Trump’s administration of being insincere to China – nodding Mr. Trump’s approach to publicly offer an overture to the Chinese leader of XI Jinping, while hitting the country with trade measures.
“No country can fantasize that it can suppress and contain cinema, and at the same time develop good relations with China,” said Mr. Wang. “This type of” two -way “approach is not only harmful to the stability of bilateral relations, but also incapable of building mutual trust.”
The press conference, Mr. Wang, an annual affair at legislative sessions, appeared thoughtful to enhance confidence in the prospect of China and attracted several foreign investments that have taken the weak growth of China in recent years, his difficult response to the Pandemic and Strong National Security Acts.
His remarks followed two days after Qiang, the main Chinese and other highest official after Mr. Xia, tried to project confidence In the economy of the country by setting an ambitious goal of growth for this year, despite the crisis of domestic and monitoring and escalating trade war with the United States.
Earlier this week, Chinese diplomats used an even firmer rhetoric in responding to Mr. Trump’s tariff. “If they now have other intentions and insist on a tariff war, a trade war or any other war, China will fight to the end,” said Lin Jian, a spokesman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, on Tuesday after Trump administration stunned an additional 10 percent of tariffs on Chinese goods.
Beijing occurs Uncertain of Mr. Trump’s intentions and is waiting to see if his tariffs are a negotiating tactic that eventually leads Trump’s administration to ask for trade conversations. Last month, Mr. Trump told reporters that a trade agreement with China was “possible”. This could include a re -re -re -trade contract of $ 200 billion, which he achieved with Mr. Xi during his first term that Mr. Trump blamed President Biden during his congress address on Tuesday because he had not “spent”. (Economists say the fault of bidden is a misconceptionto blame instead of coal pandemic, tariffs and global recessions).
Mr. XI held firmly against the United States, refusing to worship the pressure to deal with Mr. Trump As the leaders of Canada and Mexico did When they first faced the appearance of American tariffs in January. Instead, China responded to US tariffs with a series of retaliation measures, promising that she would never give up conflict.
Still, with his economy in Dolruma, China cannot afford to let go of a trade war spiral beyond control. Even as she pushed out, the government called on the United States to deal with cinema through conversations, as equal. On Thursday, Chinese trade minister Wang Wenao told reporters in Beijing that he wrote to the US store last month, Howard Lutnika and US trade representative Jamieson Greer, to invite them to a meeting.
