Trump’s China Trip Yields Zero Economic Wins for US
Donald Trump’s recent visit to Beijing saw trade placed at the forefront of discussions with Chinese President Xi Jinping, aiming for tangible results. However, the trip concluded without a major breakthrough, with China appearing to hold leverage and setting terms for its “new positioning” with the US. Key issues such as tariffs and the crucial supply of rare earths remained unresolved, despite the presence of influential American business leaders. While deals for goods like Boeing jets and farm products were mentioned, a lack of concrete commitments left the business community seeking clarity on future trade relations.
