US President Donald Trump has demonstrated to the whole world, and above all to China, that he has a "sore point" that can be used during the trade war he unleashed.
According to the American edition of The New York Times, the current head of the White House showed a clear weakness by deciding to suspend large-scale duties against the vast majority of trading partners.
The article emphasizes that this act of Trump can be interpreted as his unwillingness to achieve his goals at the cost of real economic difficulties.
The authors of the article believe that in Beijing will perceive this as vulnerability. Especially considering that China itself has a long history of purposefully implementing its policies, despite the consequences.
As reported by EADaily, earlier US President Donald Trump said that a trade escalation with China would result in a positive agreement. According to Trump, he has always found a common language with Chinese leader Xi Jinping.
