If one of Xi's asset's asset's* were tasked with destroying a critical US manufacturing sector before it could compete with China, what would the asset be tasked to do with Congressionally delegated control of US foreign trade?

* (not a typo: Xi controls Putin, who controls Trump)

#Chinese leader #XiJinping called on Southeast Asian countries Monday to join him in resisting President Donald #Trump’s “unilateralism and protectionism,” part of his effort to present #Beijing as a more reliable ally and trading partner.

#Xi’s arrival Monday in #Vietnam, a country #Trump hit with a whopping 46 percent tariff until he issued a temporary reprieve last week, marks a new stage in #Beijing’s “neighborhood #diplomacy.”

The Washington Post · China’s Xi promises Vietnam the ‘stability’ of neighborhood diplomacyBy Lily Kuo

Wie denkt dat #Xi machteloos staat tegenover #Trump, heeft het mis. China kan de VS op twee manieren treffen: door de VS zeldzame aardmetalen te onthouden en door massaal Amerikaanse staatsobligaties te dumpen. Beide zouden de Amerikaanse economie op haar grondvesten doen schudden.

The trade war between China and the United States continues to escalate. For a variety of reasons, it appears unlikely that Xi will back down. One key question is: which country is more capable of enduring prolonged economic hardship? Unfortunately, the answer may be China, due to its centralized state control and authoritarian political system, which allows for tighter management of public dissent and economic disruption.

POLITICO · China ramps up US tariffs to 125 percent in new salvo against TrumpBy Ali Walker
Continued thread

#China said its new #tariffs would take effect on Saturday.

The world’s two biggest economies have been engaged in a fast-moving tit-for-tat that has seen the cost of trade soar over the past two weeks.

On Friday, China’s top leader, #Xi Jinping, spoke publicly about the tariffs for the first time since Washington & Beijing started hitting each other with progressively higher levies this month.

“There are no winners in a tariff war,” he said.

taz.de/Trumps-Zoelle-Hoelle/!6 #Exporte sind für #Chinas Machthaber #XiJinping eine strategische Waffe. #Xi will bekanntlich demnächst #Taiwan angreifen, und um sich vor möglichen Sanktionen zu schützen, hat er sein Land auf den Weltmärkten unentbehrlich gemacht. Für die #USA ist die Ausgangslage also denkbar schrecklich: Sie sind auf #China angewiesen und treffen bei Xi auf einen versierten Strategen, während #Trump nur auf seinen „Instinkt“ hört.

TAZ Verlags- und Vertriebs GmbH · Trump will China mit Zöllen in die Knie zwingen, warum das nicht gelingen wirdDer US-Präsident glaubt, China mit Wahnsinnszöllen in die Knie zwingen zu können: ein totaler Handelskrieg. Aber das wird ihm nicht gelingen.

“Russia–Iran–China: All for one, and one for all?”

by Pepe Escobar in The Cradle

“Although perhaps not yet obvious to Washington, a US war on Iran will be viewed as one against Russia and China too. Both Putin and Xi know that Trump's war is singularly directed at the transformational global 'changes they are driving together.'”

"dumb as a bag of rocks!"🤣

"President #Xi is a very smart man. He loves his country, and I know that for a fact. I know him very well, and I think he's going to want to get to a deal." - President #Trump on the tariffs #China and the #United_States are imposing on each other.

Asked about a possible escalation, President #Trump said: "We're very powerful. We have weaponry that nobody has any idea what it is, the most powerful weapons in the world."
