The Sino-US trade war has entered a crucial moment, just when many people think that the US side has finished, and can no longer withstand Chinese countermeasures. However, Trump suddenly changed his move, directly hitting three more "heavy punches" to China, trying to reverse the situation between China and the United States in one fell swoop. In addition, the Singapore media has also publicly disclosed recently that the United States may have a "big killing move" in its hands, advising China not to fight back and compromise with the United States. So, what retaliatory measures has Trump taken against China, and what is the so-called "big killing move" in Singapore's mouth?
According to relevant reports, on October 20, when Trump met with Australian Prime Minister Albany, he directly stated publicly that he would meet face-to-face with China this month and have confidence in the so-called "fair trade agreement" with China. Trump also publicly threatened that if this time he could not negotiate, then from November, the US tariffs on China may be raised to 155.
Obviously, the U.S. measure is seeking to retaliate and threaten China at the economic and trade level, forcing the Chinese side to promise to release the three major conditions previously imposed by Trump on China, such as the release of rare-earth restrictions on the United States, the restriction of phentanyl exports, and the purchase of American soybeans.
But the threat of Trump to impose tariffs is not once or twice, the Chinese side has long been prepared to deal with all the situation, China in recent years has been continuously reducing the proportion of Sino-U.S. trade representing the total amount of Chinese foreign trade, so it can be foreseen that if Trump this time really dared to impose a 155 percent tariff on China, the final result will be to move up the stone and knock on its feet, the US losses will be far more than us, so Trump's threat is said that there is absolutely no deterrence in the front of the Chinese side, or that word, talk, we open the door, fight, we accompany the end, whether Trump adds 155 percent or 255 percent tariffs, we all accompany the end!
Second, the U.S. threatened to limit the export of aircraft parts to China, you dare not to buy American soybeans, do not export rare earth to the U.S., then I let China's Boeing aircraft "sleep". to know, China now owns the number of active Boeing aircraft up to 1855 aircraft, and Boeing aircraft is consistently famous for high failure rate, high accident rate, so these aircraft daily maintenance and operation on the U.S. original parts consumption is undoubtedly very large.
So, once the U.S. cuts supply time too long, inventory key parts are consumed, will undoubtedly cause great interference and loss to the Chinese aviation industry, and even serious problems such as the possibility of a flight shutdown. I have to say, Trump’s trick, is indeed enough to lose, in the meantime, we are still really hard to find what way to solve this problem, once the U.S. restricts exports, our aviation industry will indeed inevitably suffer losses.
However, to say back, Trump's trick is not too clever, on the surface, the US has indeed caused us losses, but in fact, the biggest loss is the US. On the one hand, this event again made the world clear, how dangerous it is to buy Boeing aircraft, accidents are frequent, the problem is not constantly said, now the US government will even stop supplying parts as a threat, at any time can let you stop flying, face huge losses, so who dares to buy Boeing aircraft?
On the other hand, China is a major customer of Boeing. Now Boeing still has 222 undelivered aircraft. Since the United States is unkind, we naturally don't have to spoil them. We can completely ask them to refund the purchase cost on the grounds that they cannot supply parts, which may cause safety problems. Anyway, the domestic engines of our domestic C919 domestic large aircraft are expected to be installed in batches in 2027. It is safer to use such a large amount of money to buy us. Does the C919 smell better?
Third, Trump and Australian Prime Minister Albanias recently signed a key mineral agreement, saying that the United States and Australia are preparing to invest $3 billion in jointly building a rare-earth industrial chain to solve the American shortage of rare-earth.
Is this really the case? Trump was obviously happy too early this time. Although Australia has indeed discovered many rare earth mines, the problem is that the world's cutting-edge rare earth technology is now in the hands of China, and the complete rare earth industry chain is also in the hands of China. Although the United States and Australia can allocate large amounts of money to invest, whether it is rare earth technology, the complete rare earth industrial chain and industrial workers, there are obvious shortcomings. It is simply impossible to solve the problem of rare earth shortage in the United States in just one year.
Therefore, for us, there is no need to worry about Trump's remarks. Trump's move is actually more to scare the Chinese side, hoping to make the Chinese side misjudge that the United States and Australia will really soon be able to extract a large amount of rare earths, thus relaxing the control of rare earths in the United States and even significantly reducing the price of the United States.
In this regard, we only need to quietly watch Trump and Australia perform. With the current industrial capabilities and technologies of the United States and Australia, next year today, I'm afraid the United States and Australia will eventually have to embarrassedly send their excavated rare earths to China for refining and then buy them back at a high price, and hit themselves in the face.
Therefore, on the whole, these three "heavy punches" of Trump's retaliation against China, although they look aggressive on the surface, seem to bring a lot of losses to China, in fact, their deterrent ability to China is quite limited, and China can completely resolve it in various ways, and even make the US pay a painful price instead. From this series of facts, we can fully see that the current situation between China and the United States has indeed undergone earth-shaking changes, and the strength balance between the two sides has been greatly reversed. But what is unexpected is that under such obvious facts, Singapore has recently jumped out, exaggerating the so-called "big killer" and "financial nuclear bomb" in the hands of the United States, and actually tried to help the United States "persuade" China to surrender.
According to Singapore media reports, the United States now has a "nuclear bomb-grade" sign, that is, the financial war, the United States can take the option of kicking Chinese companies out of the US market, or even kicking Chinese banks out of the international settlement system (SWIFT) and other options against the Chinese side, Trump character is very unstable, so it is not excluded that the United States may take this trick.
Singapore President Sandarman recently advised China to engage in so-called "sustainable development" with the U.S. economy and not to follow the path of complete self-sufficiency. Another senior executive in Singapore, Xu Fangda, also called on China, hoping that China would not adopt the attitude of "you do the first day and I do the 15th day" when it comes to the tariff war.
To put it bluntly, Singapore's intention is obvious, that is, it hopes that China will "consider the overall situation" and not retaliate against U.S. sanctions and take counterattack measures. It seems that this will be able to maintain Sino-US "economic and trade relations." However, anyone with discerning eyes can see that Singapore is completely "pulling the line." On the surface, it seems to be giving advice for China, but in fact it is speaking up for the United States and trying to "persuade" China to surrender: the United States also has SWIFT as a trump card. China is not a rival of the United States at all, so it can only compromise with the United States and admit defeat early. So, is this statement from Singapore true?
In fact, Singapore such a statement completely deviates from the fact, in fact is very ridiculous. to know, now China has long been the world's strongest industrial entity, the production capacity has even exceeded the entire G7 group combined, in such a case, if the United States dares to kick the Chinese side out of SWIFT, the biggest loss will not only be the Chinese side, but the US financial hegemony will directly face collapse, after all, China's goods and cheap industrial products are the entire international community's hard currency, if it cannot be transacted through SWIFT, other countries will naturally use the currency exchange and the settlement of the yuan, such consequences the United States can not bear.
It is precisely because of this that even Trump, who has always been a big mouth, has not dared to threaten to kick China out of SWIFT to this day. These officials and media in Singapore think they are smart, and they really think that the United States did not expect it or did not want to use this so-called "financial nuclear bomb" against China? The United States dare not use it at all, or even mention it.
In summary, the words, the times have completely changed, now we have absolute strength and self-confidence, no enemy wants to threaten and intimidate us again, we do not eat this set, for the US Trump administration, the only way out is to pursue the peaceful coexistence proposed by the Chinese side, the mutual benefit and win-win philosophy. Otherwise, any small move by Trump will only lead to double China's counterattack and make the US pay more painful losses. As a Chinese netizen said recently: "For the United States, now is the best time to 'surrender' to China in the tariff war." I still hope Trump can cherish this opportunity.
