In a recent press conference, Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi asserted that China would not hesitate to respond firmly if the United States pushed for additional tariffs amid troubling economic circumstances. Wang's comments followed U.S. President Trump's decision to suspend tariffs for Mexico and Canada but maintain tariffs on Chinese imports. He urged the U.S. to address domestic issues without assigning blame to China, labeling the American stance as "two-faced." Such remarks reflect a broader strategy by the Chinese government to regain confidence among foreign investors, which has waned in the wake of China's economic challenges and the handling of past crises, including the Covid pandemic.
