China's foreign minister, Wang Yi, recently condemned the US for its two-faced behavior regarding tariffs imposed on Chinese goods, criticizing the unpredictability of Trump's America First policy. He emphasized that no country could hope to suppress China while maintaining positive relations. Following the announcement of a tariff increase to 20%, Wang remarked on the importance of international obligations and expressed that China's exporters might struggle to meet growth targets amid such pressures. He cited a Chinese AI company's success as evidence that US sanctions would not prevent innovation in China.
"A big country should honour its international obligations... If countries pursue their own interests without regard for the international order, the law of the jungle would reign the world again."
"Where there is blockade, there is breakthrough; where there is suppression, there is innovation..."
