In the face of China's introduction of rare earth-related technological control measures, Trump's attitude changed significantly within three days, what is the reason behind this?

On October 9, China's Ministry of Commerce announced its decision to implement export controls on rare earth-related technologies. The United States reacted fiercely to China's move. While condemning China, Trump also said that he would impose 100% tariffs on Chinese goods from the beginning of next month. In the eyes of the outside world, the escalation of the Sino-US tariff war is inevitable. But to everyone¡¯s surprise, after 72 hours of resistance, Trump still chose to surrender.Just on October 13, Trump posted on social media, claiming that ¡°don¡¯t worry about China, everything will go well.¡± This was undoubtedly the release of positive signals toward China, he wanted to continue contact with China and reach relevant agreements to ease the situation. In just 72 hours, Trump¡¯s words turned 180°, in the end, there were two main reasons.

First of all, the United States cannot withstand the pressure brought by the escalating trade warAfter the US launched a tariff war against China earlier this year, China took two countermeasures to beat the US. On the one hand, it is China's regulation of rare earth exports. This is completely unexpected for the United States, to know that in the global rare earth industry chain, China occupies an indispensable position, and rare earth for semiconductors and military industry is extremely important. If China tightened rare earth exports, the U.S. proud technology and military enterprises will be affected very much. So, after we saw China's regulation of rare earth exports, Trump actively shouted to China, seeking trade negotiations with China. This time China announced export control of rare earth-related technologies, undoubtedly hit again on the U.S. seven inches, Trump announced that tariffs on China were indeed his Therefore, Trump can not withstand rare earth counter-requests and is also in anticipation.On the other hand, China suspended the import of agricultural products such as soybeans from the United States. Previously, the United States was China's largest soybeans supplier, but after the outbreak of the tariff war, Brazil replaced the United States as China's main soybeans supplier. This directly led to a situation of soybeans delay in the United States, although the U.S. government has issued some subsidies to farmers, but ultimately also a cup of water salary, and in the long run such a method can not solve the problem. So, Trump began to scream to China, wanting to restore China's soybeans orders to the U.S., and, in the U.S.-China negotiations, soybeans trade also became one of the issues discussed by both sides. In such a case, if Trump would

Secondly, China has given the United States a step forward, and Trump needs to "get off the donkey."Before Trump changed his stance, a spokesperson for China's Ministry of Commerce said in an interview,"China's export controls do not prohibit exports, and applications that meet the requirements will be allowed." In other words, China has not denied the results reached in the Sino-US negotiations on rare earths. If U.S. companies apply in compliance with regulations, China will still conduct rare earth trade with U.S. companies. So, if Trump still insists on imposing tariffs on China, it will undoubtedly block the channel for subsequent Sino-US negotiations. Moreover, this will also put the rare earth trade between the two sides in a very difficult situation, which is undoubtedly very unfavorable for the United States. Therefore, when China gives a step forward, Trump has no choice but to change his position.

In fact, from the point of view of Trump's performance, the end of the tariff war has been decided, the United States wants to overtake China through the tariff bars, there is no chance. Here, we also reveal to everyone a news that after China announced the expansion of rare-earth export control measures, the United States tried to call with China, the result was delayed by China. The reason for Beijing's delay is actually simple, it is not yet time. Because so far, the majority of U.S. negative measures in relation to China have not been canceled, the United States has always liked to "blank mark" before the negotiations between the two sides, this time, ¡°China is governing its people by its own way.¡±If the United States can make a corresponding change, then the next communication between the two sides is likely to be more smooth, which is also in line with a Chinese proverb, called "good meal is not afraid of late." But if Trump just stopped speaking and didn¡¯t take action, the two sides wanted to reach a consensus, and I¡¯m afraid it would take more time.
