China knowledgeable Evan Medeiros discusses US-China relations going again earlier than Trump’s ‘Liberation Day’ tariffs and commerce wars.
The US and China have declared a truce within the commerce conflict launched by US President Donald Trump in April, argues Evan Medeiros, former US Nationwide Safety Council director for China.
Medeiros tells host Steve Clemons that the deal reached between Chinese language President Xi Jinping and Trump resolves the pressing commerce points between the 2 sides – tariff charges, soya beans and uncommon earth minerals – however China “stays dedicated to making sure that Russia doesn’t lose” in Ukraine.
The US has greater than 200,000 troopers surrounding China, Medeiros provides, however Washington is aware of that “no one needs to decide on between the US and China.”
